    Are you looking for cognac in the classifications Cognac VS, Cognac VSOP and Cognac XO?
    Whisky.dk has everything in cognac that can be enjoyed on the chesterfield sofa with the right cognac glasses from Riedel.
    Roullet Сognac Fins Bois XO Royal is an elegant and well-balanced cognac with calm melted tannins that emphasize aromas of vanilla, dried fruit, nuts, almond, dried apricot and orange peel. This XO cognac matures for a minimum of 15 years in oak casks, which over time have given it a rich, golden copper color with amber reflections. A beautiful, full-bodied and rounded cognac.

    The self-assurance that once characterized the Cognac district has turned to despair in the last decade. The otherwise well-established image of the cigar-smoking wholesaler sitting in his soft armchair and swinging the bowl of cognac has turned towards the district as the consumer has gained greater social awareness, and the otherwise promising market in Asia has become hit by economic depression. Nothing is so bad that it is not good for something. It is often in times of economic pressure that the biggest changes and initiatives take place: Over the past few years, the cognac style has been improved and refined, so that the area today produces better cognac than ever before.

    The Cognac district is divided into 6 areas: Bois Ordinaires and Bons Bois are in the absolute outer zone. Closer to the main town are Fine Bois and Borderies, and around the town of Ségonzac we find the last two areas, Petite Champagne and Grande Champagne.

    In total, the district covers 1,132,500 ha, of which 80,000 are mainly planted with Ugni Blanc. Each of the mentioned areas gives its characteristics, but it is in Petite Champagne and Grande Champagne that you must look if you want to know why cognac is the world's best brandy. It does not matter which base wine you use when distilling cognac. The wine is reduced during the process, and only the right base wines can produce and enhance the best basic properties. A bit like a chef reducing his sauce to produce a greater intensity and concentration. The liquid is distilled twice. The first burn, "brouillis", has an alcohol percentage between 27 and 30%, but it is distilled an extra time to increase the alcohol percentage. The first distillate, also called "la tête" (the head), and the last "la queue" (the tail), are collected separately. The middle part is called "le coeur" (the heart), and it is this part, with an alcohol percentage between 69 and 72%, that is subsequently stored.

    2 1/2-3 years is usually the standard cognac of the Cognac houses, often with 3 stars on the label, while VSOP is a softer and friendlier cognac with a minimum of 4 1/2 years of aging behind it. The designations XO, Napoléon, Très Vieux etc. guarantee that the cognac is at least 6 1/2 years old. Fine Champagne is a blend of cognac from the Grande and Petite areas, of which Petite must make up no more than 50%.

    It is the aging in the oak cask itself that gives the cognac soul and quality - and the prices are often based on how long the cognac has been in the cask.
