A truly great Cognac is always a discovery – just like Larsen VSOP.
The very special distillation procedure is a crucial part of Larsen Cognac style: after vinification a rapid distillation of the wines takes place without the lees, in order to preserve the original fruity aromas of the grapes and produce eaux-de-vie of superior elegance and finesse.
Particular attention is paid to the “coeur de la bonne chauffe,” that crucial moment in the life of a Larsen Cognac when the master distiller tastes the eaux-de-vie to select only the very finest – the tiny proportion which will be transferred to oak barrels.
What it tastes like
Nose: Intense with aromas of crystallized fruits and spices, complemented by dry fig, cinnamon and vanilla. Mouth: The legendary freshness and distinctive fruity taste is balanced perfectly with oak to create a long finish.
A great cognac is always a new discovery, a tale and an adventure. This has been at the heart of Larsen Cognac House since its origin in 1926. Follow in the footsteps of our visionary founder Jens Reidar Larsen and join us on a remarkable journey.
