A Rare, Time-Honored Jewel from Grande Champagne – Hugo Réserve Royale 60 Year Old Cognac
Hugo Réserve Royale 60 Year Old Cognac is an exceptionally aged spirit that embodies patience, prestige, and the depth that only six decades of oak maturation can deliver from the heart of Grande Champagne.
Tasting Experience
Color: Deep mahogany with glowing amber and copper highlights.
Nose: Rich and layered with antique oak, rancio, old leather, dried figs, roasted nuts, dark chocolate, and a hint of tobacco.
Palate: Velvety and powerful — notes of prune compote, toasted almond, clove, cinnamon, damp earth, and polished oak emerge alongside honeyed sweetness and elegant oxidative complexity.
Finish: Long, contemplative, and warming — lingering impressions of candied fruit, sandalwood, pipe tobacco, and a gentle oxidative richness.
