Paul Beau Hors d'Age Cognac

In a region of corporate empires that produce around 90% of all Cognac, Paul Beau represents all that is beautiful about this historic area of France. This artisanal Hors d’Age has been distilled and matured to absolute perfection, creating the most complex and stunning Cognac I have ever tasted. Of the chemical reactions that occur during maturation, interactive reactions are the most important. These can only happen over long periods of time but must be monitored regularly, because it is possible to over-age. This Cognac is an amazing love affair of chemical compounds from the spirit that interact with compounds in the oak to form new compounds with totally unique flavors and aromas that would not otherwise be present in young Cognac. The result is a harmonious array of just about every tasting note in the book.
