Cognac Park Borderies Mizunara | 700ML

Detailed Description

A stunning offering from Cognac Park, produced with grapes grown exclusively in the clay soil vineyards of Cognac’s tiny Borderies cru. Intriguingly, the spirit has been treated to four years of maturation, including a six-month finishing period in Japanese mizunara oak casks, a rare variety prized by distillers for the spiced, nutty profile it imparts. We’ve seen a few mizunara aged whiskies in our time, but a Cognac, well, this is intriguing!

Cognac Park Borderies Mizunara | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: The aromas are light and floral with notes of harvest fruits — pears and cherries.

Palate: The flavor profile is rich for a four-year-old Cognac with notes of elderflowers, honey, vanilla, and fruit compote with a nice woody and herbaceous essence.

Finish: The finish is medium length and satisfying.
