Monnet XXO Cognac Soon after the Bureau National Interprofessionnel du Cognac (BNIC) announced that a new super-premium cognac category was to be launched, the XXO Cognac, Monnet has reported that they will release the Monnet Extra Extra Old Cognac. The XXO stands for ‘Extra Extra Old’ and requires the youngest eaux-de-vie in a blend to be at least 14 years old. The addition follows a dispute between the INAC, regulating all appellations in French, and Hennessy. Monnet have capitalized on the newest addition into the Cognac AOC which was created in December 2018, allowing all Cognac Maisons to bottle XXOs. They have relaunched its brand and design. The difference to the Monnet XO is that it is older.

Monnet XXO Cognac | 700ML Tasting Note

Nose: The first nose mixes notes of mahogany and cedar. With these come aromas of red berries, dominated by cherries and their pit. The whole is completed by sweet blond tobacco and subtle scents of undergrowth. The aromatic markers of very long years of aging are here undeniable.

Palate: The attack is characterized by its roundness and evolves towards an immensely rich mid-palate, accompanied with gingerbread and cinnamon. The finish is long and expressive on the palate, highlighted by sandalwood.

Finish: Clean,crisp and smooth.
