Vallein Tercinier XO Cigar Blend (70cl, 46%)

A French Cognac composed as a companion to a cigar. Long-aged Cognacs form the base of this XO Old Cigar Blend, which was bottled exclusively for the 50th anniversary of Kirsch Import. Ripe tropical fruits and juicy stone fruit meet roasted nuts, caramelised almonds and chocolate notes, while the impression stays fresh; the mouthfeel is full and creamy. It is bottled at 46% ABV without colouring, in 700 ml bottles. Nose: ripe tropical fruits and juicy stone fruit with roasted almonds, subtle spice notes and a hint of dark chocolate. Palate: chocolate and roasted, caramelised almonds stand out, full-bodied and creamy with a silky texture. Finish: fruit impressions combine with lasting nutty sweetness.
