About this spirit

Frapin XO VIP Cognac is a distinguished expression from the renowned Grande Champagne region, crafted exclusively from eaux‑de‑vie matured for decades in the humid cellars of the Frapin estate. This cognac embodies the heritage and artistry of the house, offering exceptional depth, elegance and complexity. Presented in a refined decanter, it reflects both tradition and luxury, making it a sought‑after choice for connoisseurs and collectors alike. The appearance is a deep amber with rich bronze tones, signalling maturity and concentration. On the nose, it opens with an aromatic complexity of floral notes and subtle woody accents, followed by layers of dried fruits such as apricots, raisins and candied oranges. Hints of stewed apple, nougat, cocoa and marzipan mingle with warm spices including cinnamon, nutmeg and clove, creating a bouquet that is both inviting and sophisticated. On the palate, Frapin XO VIP Cognac is smooth and rounded, delivering flavours of chocolate, gingerbread and candied fruit alongside dried figs and dates. The texture is supple yet powerful, with a balance of richness and freshness that highlights the finesse of Grande Champagne terroir. Subtle notes of pepper, coriander and cumin add complexity, while the finish is long, lingering and elegant, leaving impressions of confectionary sweetness and delicate spice. This cognac is celebrated for its harmony and refinement, having been the only cognac served aboard Concorde flights, a testament to its prestige and quality. Frapin XO VIP Cognac is ideal for enjoying neat, allowing its full character to unfold slowly, and pairs beautifully with fine chocolate or rich desserts. It represents the pinnacle of craftsmanship, offering a luxurious tasting experience that captures the essence of Grande Champagne cognac at its finest.
