With so many superb Cognac varieties on offer, from sophisticated blends to timeless eaux-de-vie, it’s hard to choose just one to enjoy. Thanks to our new Cognac Advent Calendar, you don’t have to.

The 2020 version of our limited-edition calendar allows you to taste 24 unique Cognacs from a range of fantastic artisanal houses. With only older Cognac varieties included, every taster is aged to perfection, guaranteed to contain that inimitable Cognac flavor to its fullest effect. With a new Cognac to try every single day, you’ll experience unexpected sensations, ferocious flavors and will likely find a new favorite or two.

It’s up to you how to discover each Cognac in the calendar. If you’re after a little mystery, you can replicate an expert’s blind tasting by sampling each unmarked bottle before having its name, age and house revealed. If you’d prefer to have all cards on the table, you can access a detailed list of each Cognac as soon as you open your calendar. Then, to familiarize yourself with each new favorite, a mini-podcast will be at the ready to reveal the ins and outs of the process from our producers themselves. You’ll be introduced to cellar masters, families whose history with Cognac dates back centuries, and details about everything from distillation to serving straight from the experts. How did each house make their Cognac, and what were they trying to achieve? How old is each Cognac? What growth areas are they from? These questions and more will be addressed by those who know best.

The Cognac region of France is small but diverse, and boasts an incredibly rich history. Each bottle in our calendar is a snapshot of a Cognac house that we have gotten to know and love, all with their own selections of exceptional eaux-de-vie. We’ve taken the time to handpick some of the region’s best offerings: XOs from small artisanal producers right through to precious, one-off blends, all upholding the expertise and tradition contained in this charming corner of the world.

Each calendar is filled with 24x 30ml bottles to allow you to experience a full variety of flavors and aromas, along with your very own large snifter glass for an authentic tasting experience. There’s plenty to go around if you’re in the mood for sharing, but we won’t blame you if you prefer to keep it all for yourself…

If you’re a loyal Cognac connoisseur, our calendar will allow you to revisit familiar growth areas, deepen your understanding of your favorite varieties and even test your tasting knowledge. A new recruit to the Cognac team? No problem - our calendar is the perfect introduction to Cognac ages, growth areas and flavors, helping you dip your toe (or all ten of them!) into this proud practice.

Though we’re sure you’ll eagerly await each day’s new Cognac reveal, you’ll also never want the month to end.

The Cognac Calendar also looks as good as it tastes, with a beautiful illustration greeting you from the front of the box. Opening it up will reveal your free snifter glass and all 24 30ml glass bottles– endless shades of amber, gold and mahogany ready for tasting. With free shipping, elegant packaging, generous extras and an early bird discount on offer, we recommend you waste no time in ordering a piece of this Cognac pie– we have a very limited number of 100 calendars available.

We hope you love yours.

FAQs

Does the 2020 Cognac Advent Calendar feature the same drinks as last year’s?

No– this year’s calendar will introduce you to a fresh new selection of Cognacs from XO up to Hors d’Age, including brand new products from our producers.

When will my Cognac Advent Calendar be shipped?

Your Cognac Expert Calendar will be shipped in early November.

How does it work?

We’ve designed our calendar experience to resemble an expert’s blind tasting session– though each bottle will be numbered from 1 to 24, beyond that you’ll have only color, taste, and aroma to guide you (and, of course, your intuition.)

No glass at home? No problem. You’ll even receive your very own high-quality snifter glass to ensure an optimal, authentic tasting experience.

For any extra-curious connoisseurs, you are able to access the details of each featured Cognac as soon as you open your calendar. But don’t worry– if you don’t want to spoil the surprises, just don’t peek!

What will I receive?

24 x 30 ml tasting glass bottles at minimum 40% ABV.

A free large snifter glass for an optimal tasting experience.

A beautiful box complete with an original illustration.

Each day’s Cognac comes with an exclusive mini-podcast featuring each producer.

XO, Extra and Hors d’Age Cognacs available (Younger cognac varieties–VS & VSOP–are excluded).

Will I know which brands are included in the calendar prior to receiving it?

No, we do not disclose the featured brands/specific Cognacs included until you receive your calendar. Once you open your calendar, you’ll be able to access the details of all 24 Cognacs. If you prefer, you can blindly taste each Cognac to reveal them one by one.

Any open questions? We are always happy to assist you. Send us a message with as many questions as you might have.
