Courvoisier XO Imperial

Courvoisier XO Imperial is a very aromatic cognac with orange, vanilla and Creme Brulee.
Compared with the Remy Martin XO this cognac is slightly less complex, this cognac is less earthy and masculine in comparison to the taste of the Hennessy XO. The Courvoisier XO, is a good average between the two.

The best part is that this Courvoisier XO is available in many online liquor stores for about 50 euros!

The Courvoisier XO is in a beautiful flat bottle that looks like an upside-down grape leaf.

In 1994, this cognac named the “Best Cognac in the World” at the International Wine & Spirits competition. The Courvoisier XO is a blend of very old Borderies, Petit Champagne and Grande Champagne Cognac.
