Product Description

Sazerac de Forge & Fils Cognac: Historic Native Grapes with Creamy Fruit and Spice

Sazerac de Forge & Fils Cognac revives a name connected with Bernard Sazerac de Forge, who founded a Cognac house in France in 1782. The modern “Finest Original” blend is produced after Sazerac’s return to Cognac and acquisition of Domaine Sazerac de Segonzac.

The blend includes Cognacs made from old and rare native grape varieties and combines eaux-de-vie aged between seven and fifty years. Sazerac bottles the expression non-chill-filtered at 94 proof to preserve texture and aromatic depth.

Its official profile is rich and floral, with yellow stone fruit, dried flowers, citrus peel, exotic spice, dried fruit, pepper, nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla, and soft oak tannin.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Yellow stone fruit, dried flowers, citrus peel, and warm spice. Palate: Silky and creamy, with dried fruit, pepper, nutmeg, cinnamon, and natural sweetness. Finish: Long and soft, with vanilla, black peppercorn, and gentle oak tannin.

Food Pairings
