The intensely smooth taste and character of Baron Otard Cognac is the result of its unique natural ageing at the Royal Castle in Cognac. Baron Jean-Baptiste Otard first produced his Cognac in 1795, buying the only castle in the town of Cognac because of its exceptional ageing conditions – humid cellars at a constant temperature, created by its thick stone walls and close proximity to the river Charente. Taste: Complex flavours develop on the palate, combining fruity aromas with the sweetness of honey. Appearance: Amber Aroma: Round and balanced notes, oak hints, plum and almond. A rich rancio comes in, some leather aromas due to its length of ageing. The Borderies spirits in this blend lead to a floral fragrance.
