Description
Mauxion Selection XO Fins Bois Cognac
Embark on a luxurious journey with the Mauxion Selection XO Fins Bois Cognac. It's the first batch from Mauxion's new limited series. This Single Estate Cognac, aged almost three decades, redefines the concept of time-honored tradition and excellence. Crafted with utmost care, it carries no additives, displays a natural color, and is non-chill filtered, representing an exquisite purity that is hard to find - at an unbeatable price point.
This first-ever Mauxion XO Cognac captivates with an enchanting amber hue, drawing you into a rich tapestry of tantalizing aromas and irresistible flavors. From the warm, smoky scent of blond tobacco to the earthy undertones of nuts and dried fruits, your senses are poised for an unparalleled journey of discovery.
On the palate, this 43% ABV Cognac presents a harmonious dance of fine tannins, creating an elegant structure and mouthfeel. The finish is a symphony of flavors, where the sweetness of toffee notes play against the slight bitterness of cocoa and chocolate, leaving a lingering sense of comfort and satisfaction.
The Mauxion Legacy
Steeped in history, the Mauxion family's legacy dates back to 1575, with an unbroken lineage of Cognac producers since 1743. Thirteen generations of the Mauxion family have taken pride in creating high-class, quality eaux-de-vie from their estate in Houlette.
The uniqueness of Mauxion Selection lies in their range of single cru expressions, originating from the prestigious terroirs of Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, Fins Bois, Bons Bois, and Bois Ordinaries. Preserving the full-bodied flavor of their eaux-de-vie, Mauxion Selection Cognac is bottled at cask strength without any blending or reduction. This ensures an exceptional complexity and depth in every drop of their Cognac.
How to enjoy
Mauxion Selection XO Fins Bois Cognac is best appreciated neat or on the rocks to fully savor its rich, complex palate. Pour it gently into a tulip glass and let it rest a few minutes before taking the first sip; this allows the Cognac to breathe and the subtle layers of flavor to fully unfurl.
