About Delamain Très Vénérable Cognac
Once an eau-de-vie has been selected it goes into the cellars of Cellar Master Dominique Touteau, where it is closely monitored throughout its long stay.
The aged French oak casks preserve the fruity flavor and subtleties and are moved between different cellars; sometimes the cask needs a damp environment, other times a breezy one, a cool or warmer one. The liquid inside breathes and follows the rhythm of the seasons.
When the time has come to blend the meticulously-developed cognac, the Cellar Master already knows the tiniest details and temperaments of each eau-de-vie.
The blending of the cognac is left until last, only leaving the two years of marrying the final liquid in order to let all the aromas and flavors gel and make Delamain the fantastically elegant spirit that it is.
Delamaine Cognac Très Vénérable was introduced in 1976 and is crafted from spirits averaging 45 to 50 years, some even older.
All the eaux-de-vie comes from the Premier Cru. The expression is cut down to 80 proof using older, lower strength cognac instead of water to preserve the intricacies of its delicate yet rich profile.
