Laurichesse Le Chai de Mon Pere Fut 212 Grande Champagne Cognac

Laurichesse Le Chai de Mon Pere Fut 212 Grande Champagne Cognac is an exceptionally mature single-cask expression from Maison Laurichesse's Le Chai de Mon Pere collection. Distilled by Guy Laurichesse in the 1970s using the family's traditional 12-hectolitre still in Verrieres, the Cognac spent decades developing in Cask 212 before being selected for bottling. Bottled in November 2023 at its natural strength of 47.6% ABV without reduction or added caramel, only 165 bottles were produced. Rich and expressive, it combines exotic and candied fruit with toasted notes, spice, mature rancio, ginger and acacia.
