TASTING NOTES
SERVING SUGGESTION

Appearance: Its deep and intense amber colour and glimpses of mahogany are an indicator of its power.

Aroma: Rich, full-bodied and complex, X.O combines the spicy aromas of oak and leather with the sweeter essences of flowers and ripe fruit.

Palate: The palate is warmly embraced by flavours of candied fruit. The intriguing sensation of an intense, rising heat slowly reveals the complex taste of eaux-de-vie patiently aged in oak barrels. Perception of a strong spicy cognac note, tantalising the lips and palate with its distinct peppery flavour intertwined with a hint of chocolate. A wave of warmth grows, crests and then breaks. A robust presence, full and voluptuous, is felt. There is the gradual discovery of something very familiar. It is the well-rounded flavour of a rich, dark chocolate. The evanescent oak notes leave a long, omnipresent finish in their wake. Seemingly endless, it echoes all of the subtleties of each taste and sensation that has preceded it.

Finish: The evanescent oak notes leave a long, omnipresent finish
