Godet XO Terre Cognac

A rare Cognac blend that was aged for 30 years.

The story of Godet Cognacs is really, really long. We’ll try not to bore you too much wih every detail possible as you can imagine a thing or two has happened in the 4 centuries (add or take a couple of decades) since the story started in 1588. It was then that a Dutch merchant Bonaventure Godet founded a salt and Wine business in the harbour of La Rochelle on the western coast of France. Godet was one of the first traders of the “Dutch burnt wine” — the name under which Cognac was known back in the day. Over the years, the craft and taste have been refined, but Godet Freres Cognac remains 100% family-owned today when it is run by the 15th generation of Godet family.

Godet XO Terre Cognac is a rare Cognac blend that was aged for 30 years in oak. It’s inspired by the 6 crus of Cognac: Grande Champagne, Bons Bois, Fins Bois, Petite Champagne, Bois Ordinaires, and Borderies. This luxurious bottling brilliantly reflects the terroir and the soul of Godet vineyard. Notice the rich golden mahogany color that is only a prelude into the aromas of black pepper, cinnamon, and violet and a complex and powerful palate with prune, honey, and Russian leather. Luxury par excellence. Silver at both San Francisco and London International Spirits Competition.
