Coniac Martell Cordon Bleu XO

Plenty of action on the nose with orange, prunes, cinnamon and flowers all laid out on a piece of used leather. It is floral, but not intensely so. Delicious honey and chocolate as it arrives on the palate with a charming interplay between fruit and flowers. The cinnamon and cocoa are here too. The...

Dial up the fruit and sand off the wood a little and we’re within touching distance of greatness. A good drop.

With time, coco powder and cinnamon bark notes develop in the background. Very complex nose. Palate: smooth,...

This is a very classy cognac: flavor, aroma, all that you would expect from a good cognac. Was the favorite of our group of tasters. Woody, robust, spicy are some of the features I picked up. Definitely recommemd.
