Description

Louis Royer XXO Cognac

Louis Royer XXO steps beyond the classic XO, meeting the Extra Extra Old standard that requires every eau-de-vie in the blend to rest for at least 14 years in French oak. Sourced mainly from Fine Champagne crus and bottled at 40 % vol, it delivers a mature profile while keeping the round fruit character that has marked the house since its founding in 1853 in Jarnac.

Presentation of the bottle

The decanter is a broad-shouldered square bottle with a heavy glass base that shows the Cognac’s deep amber hue. A gold-tone stopper crowns a midnight-blue collar scripted with “Louis Royer.” The front carries a minimalist cream label stating “Louis Royer XXO,” underlined by the maison’s interlaced “LR” monogram in gold. The bottle slides out from a natural-wood frame that doubles as a display case, paired with a warm chestnut-brown cover stamped in gold lettering—both stylish and practical for shelf or cellar.

How to drink

Serve neat in a tulip glass at room temperature. A few minutes of air will open layers of dried fruit and gentle spice; adding a single drop of water can emphasise the sherry-toned finish without reducing body. Pair with a square of 70 % dark chocolate or a mild cigar to echo the spirit’s tobacco accents.

About Louis Royer Cognac

Famous for its bee emblem, Cognac Louis Royer traces its history back to the year 1853 and is known for a wide range of quality cognacs and Pineau. Creating cognacs from all six terroirs of the Cognac growing region, the offices and cellars of Louis Royer remain in the town of Jarnac on the banks of the Charente River where they were set up over 150 years ago. Very much continuing with the traditional methods championed by the cognac house’s name sake, Louis Royer boasts five generations of family experience and skill that continue to produce a full range of cognacs distributed on a world wide scale.
