D'ussé VSOP Cognac is naturally aged for at least four and a half years in the cellars of the Château de Cognac, resulting in a remarkably smooth and bold blend. The palate reveals rich, layered flavors of ripe figs, caramel, and honey, followed by a warm, gently spiced finish.

The story behind it
The maker
D'ussé was founded in 2012 through a partnership between Sovereign Brands, Shawn 'Jay-Z' Carter, and Bacardi, aiming to modernize the traditional Cognac category. Produced at the historic Château de Cognac on the banks of the Charente River, it has quickly become a modern cultural icon of luxury.
How it is made
Master Cellar Master Michel Casavecchia meticulously crafts D'ussé at the historic Château de Cognac, one of the oldest Cognac houses in France. The spirits are aged in dry and humid cellars to achieve a unique, balanced flavor profile that is both robust and incredibly smooth.
