About this bottle
This is the youngest offering in Tesseron's cognac collection, yet it receives an XO designation because its eaux-de-vie are at least 10 years old. The ugni blanc grapes used for this bottling originate from Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, and Fins Bois. Formerly known as XO Selection, Lot No. 90 has been renamed XO Ovation.

Sipping a glass while waiting for an afternoon meeting is pleasant 😁
Whiskey: A nice scent of chocolate, wood, oak, spice, orange, with a hint of vanilla...
Medium body, moderately complex, not very subtle, with a short aftertaste, but overall it's decent.
Good for casual drinking, but if you're expecting an XO, you might want more...
For this price, I'd spend a bit more and get a Tesseron 76 instead, which is much better!!
Cheers to a happy day!! 😁🥃👍🏻

NOSE: Smells like pineapple! Also marzipan, dark plums, blood orange, honey, cardamom, old furniture, polished leather, cherries, and milk chocolate. The more you explore it, the more you discover. Fantastic!
PALATE: Sweet marzipan, floral notes, and thick honey, gentle spice appears after 5 seconds, then fades to a rich mint chocolate conclusion. Wonderful!
OVERALL: It rivals aged scotch whisky. Extremely complex yet balanced. Seek it out!

If you can find one, try it. Rich, fruity, sweet, smooth, oily, with a spicy finish. Easy to drink. I like it.

Among the top cognacs I've experienced. It's perfectly balanced with a rich, fruity aroma.
