Set Cognac Park Mizunara
Borderies, 700 ml
Description
This cognac is the perfect combination of the savoir-faire of French cognac cellarmasters and the exotic aromas of the rare Japanese Mizunara oak. First matured in Limousin oak and then refined in Mizunara oak for 6 months, the connoisseur is presented with a fragrance palette of sweet floral elements typical of a Borderies Cognac. The nose is also enveloped by notes of toffee, candied orange and cedar wood. Noble smoky and spicy components are typical characteristics of the finish in the exclusive Mizunara oak barrel. On the palate the cognac presents itself soft, round and elegant. Mizunara gives the cognac depth and a marriage of complex spicy and fruity notes such as fresh fig, cloves, coconut and hazelnut, plums and apricots. A discovery for those who enjoy Japanese whisky or those who appreciate artisan cognacs. A noble gift (awarded with gold and silver medals) in the contemporary Japanese bottle. Serve it either at 18°C to enjoy its finesse and softness, or "on the rocks" if you want to discover its fresh side. Perfect with trout tataki with yuzu and vegetable julienne. The set includes: 1 bottle of 70cl Cognac Park Borderies Mizunara; 1 glass Cognac Park.

Cognac: Hochprozentig edel
Das idyllisch am Fluss Charente gelegene Cognac ist eine französische Kleinstadt wie aus dem Bilderbuch. Es liegt im Herzen einer Weinbauregion, deren Rebfläche von fast 80.000 Hektar fast ausschliesslich der Weinbrand-Herstellung dient. In den ausgedehnten Kellern der prestigeträchtigen Cognac-Häusern reifen diese Destillate jahrelang ihrer Genussreife entgegen. Die exklusivsten Cognacs schlummern oft fünfzig oder mehr Jahre in Eichenfässern, bis sie in edlen Karaffen zum Verkauf angeboten werden.

France – Philosophy in a bottle
According to French philosophy, wine should be an expression of the soil and climate. They use the word “terroir” to describe this. Terroir makes every wine different, and many especially good. French wine is regarded worldwide as an expression of cultural perfection. The French believe that humans are responsible for the quality of the berries, the vine variety for their character, and nature for the quantity. This philosophy can be expressed succinctly as: “the truth is the vineyard, not the man.”
