✨ Technical Specifications
The Courvoisier Celebration Sensorielle XO Gift Set is an exquisite presentation of the house's signature Extra Old Cognac, designed to engage all the senses. This legendary blend is crafted from selection of matured eaux-de-vie sourced from the prestigious crus of Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, and Borderies. The history of Courvoisier is famously intertwined with Napoleon Bonaparte, who visited the warehouses in Bercy in 1811 and later took several casks of Courvoisier with him into exile on St. Helena—forever cementing its reputation as 'The Cognac of Napoleon.' The XO itself is aged in proprietary French oak casks, developing a complex, velvety profile rich with notes of candied orange, iris, and crème brûlée. The 'Celebration Sensorielle' edition is curated to amplify these complex aromas, offering a immersive tasting journey that celebrates the art of blending.
