About Delamain Vesper XO 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.
Delemain Vesper XO Cognac was first created in the 1950s. Vesper is Latin for “evening” or “evening star,” and is meant to invoke the deep power of early evening time. Crafted from 100% Grande Champagne eaux-de-vie with the average age of around 35 years, it’s a rich and dense expression that has been cut down to 80 proof using older, weaker cognac.
