The tasting ceremony is the art of the initiated, where each gesture extols the virtues of the cognac

Rather than a balloon glass, we select a tulip glass, the bowl elongated to the rim, in which all the nuances of Tesseron Cognac’s complex aroma can be captured. The liquid is poured gently to allow its extraordinary colour to be appreciated, a deep, clear topaz with golden highlights, the result of the distillates’ slow ageing in old oak casks.

Then, with the glass cupped in the palm of the hand, we make a slight rotating movement. The first aromas are released. We then delicately inhale the precious elixir several times.

Tesseron Extrême, Grande Champagne, Cognac 1er Cru

It is so rare that even specialists only speak of it as a memory of flavours long sought and never found. Velvety and supple on the palate, its exceptional mellowness is matched only by its infinitely complex depth. Its ‘’rancio’’ nose, the result of long years of ageing in oak casks, is smooth and harmonious. It opens up in waves of countless secondary aromas, whose tones get stronger and stronger, and then ends with a nice, soft finish. Its exceptionally long-lingering taste is an irrefutable pledge of quality.
