Cognac ageing is a meticulous process that transforms raw eaux-de-vie into a refined spirit, unfolding within oak barrels in the humid cellars of southwestern France. After double distillation, the clear spirit rests—often for years—in Limousin or Tronçais oak, absorbing tannins, vanilla, and spice while softening its fiery edge. Classifications like VS (at least 2 years), VSOP (4 years minimum), and XO (10 years since 2018) mark time’s impact, with crus like Grande Champagne yielding Cognacs that deepen over decades into rancio-rich masterpieces. Temperature, humidity, and the cellar master’s art guide this evolution, crafting Cognac’s signature complexity and elegance.
