HomeCognac Taste and Flavor

Cognac is a spirit with a complex and luxurious taste and flavor profile. It is made by distilling wine and aging the resulting eau-de-vie in oak barrels. The aging process imparts a range of flavors and aromas to the spirit, including notes of vanilla, oak, spice, and dried fruit. Different types of Cognac, such as VS, VSOP, and XO, have varying levels of aging and therefore different flavor profiles.
