Tasting notes by Leopold Gourmel:
Nose : A very refined expression, inner richness, tender notes, wild flowers, hawthorn, hues of nuts. Palate : Soft and silky feeling, covering the palate with a floral fragrance, comfortable warmth and a lingering finish of while flowers. Léopold...
The colour: Amber and golden. The nose is strong, good woody notes and dry & sweet hints of rancio. The taste is full and round, very soft combined with a great deal of fruits.
Eye: Dark robe with flashes of red gold Nose: Powerful and spicy. Oak and leather aromas with slightly sweeter hints of flowers and fruit Palate/Finish: Complex yet well rounded. Tastes of pepper and rancio come through on the lengthy finish.
Personal tasting review yet to come. However, the producer writes the following about Larsen XO Cognac: Round and mellow, with a remarkable spicy and fruitcake aroma with touches of lime tree and ripe fruits. Intense finish and moderate tannin.
