Courvoisier V.S. (Very Special) Cognac is a blend of several crus aged between three and seven years (four to eight for Russia), composed principally of Fins Bois with a balancing hand of Petite Champagne.
The fusion of younger and older cognacs gives Courvoisier V.S. a fruity, delicate taste and a bouquet filled with ripe fruit and spring flowers.
The chalky soil in Fins Bois delivers a hint of ripened fruits that is its signature aroma. Inhale deeply for the bouquet of spring flowers, which is a hallmark of grapes harvested at their peak from the Fins Bois crus. The rich, fresh oak bouquet is controlled throughout the ageing process to make sure it doesn't dominate the young cognac.
Recipe Option:
Add 25ml of Courvoisier V.S. to a highball glass filled with ice. Top up with ginger ale. Garnish with a slice of orange.
