This brand is making waves - not only do they draw upon hundreds of years of savoir-faire, but they also innovate to create one of the most stylish Cognacs, the D'USSÉ XO. It is the second of the D'USSÉ line, and Master Blender Michel Casavecchia weaves his magic by selecting only the finest eaux-de-vie of 10 years or more. The result is a stunning Extra Old Cognac that has been left to sleep in French barrels and develop depth and complexity in flavor and aroma. Crafted at the iconic Chateau de Cognac in the home of the historic Baron Otard Cognac producers, the D'USSÉ XO is pure luxury.
The two-barred cross decanter is both cutting edge and wonderfully rustic. The glossy black bottle arrives in a crushed velvet black box, with silver calligraphy etched into the side. The silver metallic Cross of Lorraine gives an indication of the extensive history of Cognac blending knowledge at D'USSÉ, and the design is a subtle nod towards the forward-thinking element of the brand. Bottled at 40% ABV.
Enjoy it neat, or on the rocks.
I always like the nose on Cognacs and Whiskeys, based on the nose they all always pass. First impression in the palate smooth & sweet. Which surprised me considering the price, at this price you expect some burn. No Burn! You can hold this in your mouth for days. Sweet fruity notes are immediate and...
I have at home the Remy, Courvoisier, and now this D'usse. All XO's. Comparing these three, I find the D'usse to best balanced, least woody, least sharp, most fruit and floral forward, and the smoothest, with an outstanding medium/long finish. The D'usse was also the cheapest of the three.
The genesis of D'Ussé Cognac's unique character is a collaboration between Shawn "JAY-Z" Carter and Michel Casavecchia, the brand's esteemed cellar master. With over two decades of experience in curating spirits, Casavecchia has established D'Ussé as a modern expression of Cognac, emphasizing integrity, boldness, and authenticity. Crafted at one of the oldest Cognac houses in France, the Château de Cognac, it makes for stunning eaux-de-vie that quite literally soak up the atmosphere of where they are located. Their range now consists of the D’USSÉ XO and the D’USSÉ VSOP.
