Courvoisier Gold is a flirty and sophisticated beverage and perfect for explorers of the cognac world. SCLiquor had sought a new owner for D’Usse over fears Bacardi subsidiary Empire Investments – which oversees its day-to-day operations – was mismanaging the Cognac brand. This cognac is naturally aged for at least four and a half years in the cellars of France’s Château de Cognac. On the nose, it reveals a powerful bouquet, rich in woody aromas that are then backed by touches of cinnamon and floral notes.

Nose delivers rich notes of ripe blackberry and apricot, layered with hints of dark chocolate and walnut, culminating in an exceptionally balanced finish.

On the nose it reveals a powerful bouquet of bright floral notes with rich woody undertones and touches of creamy almond and cinnamon, completed by the subtle accents of honey and sweet dried fruits. Comparing these three, I find the D'usse to best balanced, least woody, least sharp, most fruit and floral forward, and the smoothest, with an outstanding medium/long finish.

Naturally aged at least four and a half years in the cellars of France’s Château de Cognac, D’USSÉ™ VSOP Cognac is a uniquely powerful Cognac that delivers a bold flavour and a smooth finish. I am confident our new D’USSÉ Cocktail Collection will indulge every cocktail enthusiast’s senses and hope to personally discover some with you. Dry and fruit-forward on the palate, showing buttery pear tart, candied lime peel, and banana candy, the finish is medium-long and laced with baking spice.Owned and endorsed by legendary rapper and entrepreneur Jay-Z, D'usse Cognac showcases a distinctive, striking bottle design and an incomparable taste. There are two cognacs in the D’USSÉ range, a VSOP Cognac aged for at least four and a half years and an XO Cognac aged for a minimum of ten years. Courvoisier VSOP (Very Superior Old Pale)is an elegant and sensual blend of cognacs up to 10 years old from two of the finest crus in the Cognac region.
