Sale price$37.99

An elegant, smooth and well balanced Very Special Cognac, the Cognac Moisans VS is a youthful delight. Aged for at least 2 years in French oak barrels, it has been distilled following ancestral methods passed down through generations of Cognac makers at the famous Moisans Distillery. This fruity and fresh VS comes from the 60-hectare domain with vines in the Fins Bois cru, which is particularly known for producing supple Cognacs.

The property is home to 12 2,500-liter Charentais stills, which are distilling the eaux-de-vie from the end of summer to March the following year. The Moisans Distillery is home to a vast reserve of Cognac to make sure that quality is always as high as possible, and that their Cognacs are aged to perfection.

Les Moisans, a hamlet in the Cognac region, is made from the limestone from the surrounding soil. This limestone provides the best soil for growing vines, as the vines need to plunge deep in order to grow. When Roland Bru acquired the property in the 1960s, he began a tradition of Cognac making that would be carried on for generations.

Located near the Charente River, it is in a truly iconic spot. The family has accumulated a unique savoir-faire acquiring the property and now understand the nature of the soil in which their vines are grown.
