Cognac XO Planat is a blend of different aged eaux-de-vie the youngest being ten years old. Selected by the cellar master these eaux-de-vie are chosen for their ability to age, they are the proud fruit of patient work.
Eye: its dark colour with hints of gold draws you in.
Nose: deliciously complex notes that are both gourmet (crystallised orange peel, quince, prune) and intriguing (cedar, mild tobacco, smoke). Only ageing can provide these aromas so characteristic of old cognacs.
Palate: the attack is clean and silky, dominated by sweet spices, Virginia tobacco and cocoa, then opening up into beautiful jammy fruit notes (apricot, bergamot) and ending with a spicy (Szechuan pepper), delicately smoky touch. The finish is exceptionally long.
