Delamain Reserve de la Famille Cognac

Detailed Description

The exceptional and ultra-premium Delamain Cognac Reserve de la Famille was originally meant for the Delamain family and their guests. It’s special in that it’s a single-estate, single-barrel Cognac. Instead of being blended, it’s a single Grande Champagne eau-de-vie that has been aged for arguably the maximum amount of time that still benefits the liquid inside, around 60 years. It’s undiluted, as the alcohol content has dropped naturally through the years to 43% ABV.

Distillery Information

Founded in 1759, Delamain is unlike any other cognac producer in France. Having long made the decision to specialize in producing only the finest well-aged expressions, they have forgone both the VS and VSOP grades of cognac and opted to make their XO expression their entry-level offering and backing it with a world-class quality to match. This, in turn, made them a favorite of many discerning cognac drinkers who were quickly enamored by their expressions’ exquisite taste born out of a passion for the pursuit of nothing else but pure perfection.
