The elegant presentation echoes the cognac's luxurious lineage and the meticulous finishing process in wine casks, promising a sensorial experience steeped in sophistication. With the vintage year prominently displayed, the cognac is not only a taste but also a collector's piece, an artifact of a rarified terroir.
How to drink
The Comandon Borderies XO is a spirit that demands your full attention. Best enjoyed neat, at a controlled temperature that allows the subtle marriage of cognac and wine barrel influences to shine. Allow each sip to be savored slowly, reverently, as one would appreciate an artwork or a piece of classical music.
About Comandon Cognac
Comandon is an independent Cognac house that continue to control all of their production in-house. Their philosophy lies in uniting traditional elegance and two centuries of savoir-faire with modernity and pushing the boundaries, which can be seen in their bespoke branding campaigns and unique internet presence. Think La Dolce Vita meets Armani.
With an extremely forward-thinking marketing agenda and a particularly hands-on approach when it comes to the music and entertainment industry, Comandon have carved themselves an interesting space for a niche approach to the Cognac business.
They do an exceptional job of producing small, artisanal batches that offer rare and limited glimpses into one particular terroir, or one exceptional harvest, whether the eaux-de-vie are younger or older. For this reason, they defy tradition in the Cognac world, who believe that “older is better” and producing the same Cognac year in, year out is the end objective. Comandon instead work in tandem with nature, initiating unique collaborations for their single cask collection, and never fearing experimentation.
With a history dating back around 200 years, the Cognac house continue to produce excellent Cognac and receive top-notch awards.
