Mauxion Sélection Borderies Cask #45 (70cl, 55%)

Mauxion Sélection Borderies Cask #45 is a single-cask cognac from the Borderies, bottled at 55% ABV in a 70cl bottle. It is not chill-filtered and contains no colouring, and it is delivered in a wooden box. French oak and the Borderies origin define this bottling. Fine tannins give structure while floral impressions remain; roasted nuts and liquorice are the marked flavour anchors, with dried fruit, a fine vanilla note and spicy accents. The family's cognac history reaches back to 1743. The nose combines nut aromas with dried fruit and a discreet vanilla note. The palate is soft and round, with spicy notes intensifying towards the end alongside a hint of cocoa. The finish is long and warm, leaving a nutty note.
