Description
Courvoisier VSOP 70cl - the ultimate cocktail Cognac
A sure classic from one of the Big Four, the original Courvoisier VSOP Cognac is a timeless bottle. Skilfully crafted by expert blenders, it is a blend of several crus with a balance between the Grande and Petite Champagne and the Fins Bois, which have been selected for their aromatic potential. This classic Very Superior Old Pale has been aged for between 8 and 12 years in a selection of Troncais and Limousin oak barrels, with distillation taken from green grapes of both Grande and Petite Champagne areas. This VSOP blend is a medium bodied classic.
The harmonious quality of the Fine Champagne gives the Cognac total mastery, while the Fins Bois gives it a floral and fruity character.
How to enjoy the Courvoisier VSOP
A smooth, slow Cognac perfect for appreciation on its own or in higher-end cocktails. The distillery’s heritage and craft shine through the legs of the spirit.

Fruity but intense alcohol taste
This VSOP has clear instant peachy elements, but gets overwhelmed by the intense alcohol stimulation on the tong. Letting the VSOP air a bit more, even adding a few drops of water did not help much. This VSOP is quite tasty, but I expected a bit more smoothness from a VSOP though.
About Courvoisier Cognac
Courvoisier is amongst the four leading Cognac houses in the world - also known as the 'Big Four'. Legend has it that the emperor Napoléon himself chose Courvoisier as his preferred Cognac, therefore Courvoisier brandy 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 Napoléon or Josephine, the Cognac house is at the top of the luxury spirits market. The Courvoisier VS, VSOP, and Rose Liqueur are also very popular. The drink is strongly ingrained in US Hip Hop culture with Busta Rhymes and P Diddy dedicating the song “Pass the Courvoisier” to the traditional brand.
