Sazerac de Forge XO Cognac is a luxurious extra-old Cognac crafted in tribute to Bernard Sazerac de Forge, one of the original Cognac houses from the 1700s. Meticulously blended from a rare collection of eaux-de-vie sourced from various crus in the Cognac region, this XO (Extra Old) expression embodies refinement, complexity, and heritage.
Aged for a minimum of 10 years, Sazerac de Forge XO showcases the elegance of fine French oak maturation, the complexity of traditional Cognac blending, and the signature richness that sets Sazerac Cognac apart from the rest. The bottle’s modern classic presentation—with its broad shoulders, blue ribbon, and cork-and-wire closure—makes it a perfect gifting or collector’s item for Cognac lovers.
