Description

ABK6 VSOP Chinese New Year of the Snake Cognac

The ABK6 VSOP Chinese New Year of the Snake Cognac is a special edition crafted in collaboration with Chinese artists to celebrate the Year of the Snake 2025. This limited-edition Cognac showcases the artistry and skill of Francis Abécassis and Frédéric David, the estate's Cellar Master, who carefully selected eaux-de-vie known for their aromatic richness. These eaux-de-vie have been aged in some of the oldest casks of the estate, ensuring a profound depth of flavor.

The Cognac boasts a beautiful golden hue with amber and old gold reflections. On the nose, it reveals an exquisite aromatic profile with woody, spicy notes. Cinnamon, orange peel, and dried figs emerge, delivering a sense of warmth and sophistication. The palate follows with a well-balanced blend of fruity and woody flavors, highlighted by candied fruits, hazelnut, and walnut. The finish is long and delicate, leaving a lasting impression of complexity and refinement.

Presentation of the bottle

The ABK6 VSOP Chinese New Year of the Snake Cognac is presented in a striking bottle that captures the essence of this special edition. The design features vibrant red, gold, and green hues, with intricate depictions of snakes coiling around the bottle—symbolizing strength and renewal in Chinese culture. The rich gold accents on the neck and cap further enhance the bottle’s luxurious appearance, with the ABK6 logo prominently displayed at the top. The overall presentation is both artistic and elegant, making it a perfect collector’s item and a standout addition to any Cognac collection.

How to drink

The ABK6 VSOP Chinese New Year of the Snake Cognac is best enjoyed neat, allowing you to savor its full spectrum of aromas and flavors. For those who prefer a subtle twist, adding a drop of water or a single ice cube can enhance the tasting experience by softening the spicy notes without compromising the integrity of this fine spirit.

About ABK6 Cognac

Owned by Francis Abécassis (a homonym of ABK6 when pronounced in French), ABK6 Cognac is a relatively young brand based in the Domaine de Chez Maillard near the village of Claix. The brand is known for its choice to produce single estate Cognacs, with its eaux-de-vie being carefully selected from their 220 hectares of land, specifically for their aromatic intensity and indulgence. The label has shaken up the industry by introducing a young and modern spirit to a traditional drink, without compromising on quality. The company is now one of the largest independent producers in Cognac, and also owns the brands Leyrat, Reviseur and Grands Domaines. Attention to detail is applied to every single aspect of production at ABK6, with sustainable growing methods, Charentaise distillation and precise blending. It’s no wonder the group has taken home over 60 awards in recent years.
