Sip Snapshot from Belford & Co

The original jewel of the Tesseron collection of Cognacs; a unique blend of legendary Grande Champagne Cognacs, including many of the finest of their oldest and rarest stocks distilled in 1920s, with 5% of the blend from 1905, and lovingly aged for three generations. Remarkably pure and refined with floral, spices and green chartreuse hints. The palate is impeccably fine and balanced with a souring finish, seemingly free of spirit.

 

Appearance: Dark mahogany with golden hues. 

 

Nose: A masterpiece of aged aromas, featuring dried fruit, truffle, cedar, and polished oak, intertwined with hints of honey and exotic spices. 

 

Palate: Ultra-smooth and complex, offering layers of fig, dark chocolate, tobacco, and aged rancio, with an unctuous texture. 

 

Finish: Endless, with waves of spice, nutty sweetness, and refined oak depth. 

 

Overall: One of Tesseron's most prestigious XOs, a collector's Cognac with unparalleled depth and elegance.
