Description
An innovative product, Courvoisier Master's Cask Collection Sherry Cask Finish is the first expression of so called 'double barrel aging' to be released by one of the large Cognac houses. As the name suggests, the aging process is finished off in barrels that have previously been used to age Sherry - Pedro Ximénez Sherry, to be exact.
This has led to a unique tasting Cognac - one that will also appeal to malt whisky drinkers, as well as fans of Cognac. It's a VS quality, with the comonents making up the blend having been aged for between 2 1/2 to 8 years. They're then transferred to the PX Sherry barrels for a minimum of 4 months.
The result os a Cognac that has wide-ranging appeal. The younger generation will appreciate this very different take on a traditional Cognac. And it also lends itself as a great choice in cocktails.

About Courvoisier Cognac
Courvoisier is amongst the four leading cognac houses in the world. Legend has it that the emperor Napoleon himself chose Courvoisier as his preferred cognac, therefore Courvoisier is often referred to as “The Cognac of Napoleon”. The company dates back to 1828 and since has its headquarters in the town of Jarnac. With prestigious bottles such as Courvoisier Napoleon or Josephine, the cognac house is at the top of the luxury spirits market. The drink is strongly engrained in US Hip Hop culture with Busta Rhymes and P Diddy dedicating the song “Pass the Courvoisier” to the traditional cognac.

Color - beautifl yellow gold
Nose - frank, intense, very fruity - white fruits, oak wood, and notes of citrus
Palate - grape and grapefruit, very persistent
Eye: Bright straw gold
Nose: Potent, with hints of vanilla, oak, and some spicy tones
Palate: Powerful, almost sharp, with hints of wood. A great mixing Cognac.
Tasting review by Michel Forgeron Cognac:
Eye: Light amber color and reflections
Nose: Vanilla, yellow fruits, nectarines. Rather explosive aromas.
Palate: Continuing on from the powerful aromas, it evolves in lively and persistant flavors
