A combination of Petite and Grande Champagne Cognacs blended with Cognac aged in new oak casks.
Details
To compliment the strength and complexity of cigars, this blend is made predominantly of Grande Champagne and aged in new barrels to give the Cognac a more tannic edge. Indeed, the Cognac is moved every two years into new barrels to maximise the influence of the new oak character. This more woody profile and higher ABV content give the Cognac a rich, strong and complex character which will enhance any cigar smoking experience and expand the repertoire of those wishing to learn about this most noble of drinks categories.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Rich and fruity, with raisin-flecked baked apples, and sweet and sour stewed orchard fruit – more apples and pears. Soft spiciness develops in the glass.
Palate: The palate is rounded and sweet, with weighty and darker edges. Sweet apple takes the centre ground, with hot chocolate, milk chocolate and fruity dark chocolate coming in from the sides. Spice grows across the palate, along with some drier notes – fruit skin and rich earth.
Finish: Warming spice; aniseed and cinnamon, pears and dark chocolate.
Comment: A robust Cognac that will stand up to all but the weightiest of cigars. However, when drunk alone, this shows a softer, fruitier and more complex side.

About A. E. Dor
In 1858 Amédée-Edouard Dor, the eldest son of a noble Cognac family, embarked on his lifelong passion: to amass the finest collection of Cognacs in France. Scouring Cognac houses from the great to the boutique, from the old to the new, Amédée's reputation soon grew, giving him access to Cognacs that had never been seen nor tasted before. Keen to preserve the Cognacs at their very peak, when he felt they had reached optimum maturity in their oak barrels, Amédée decanted the Cognacs into wax sealed glass demijohns so that future generations could enjoy and experience his lifelong work. Today, many of these precious vessels remain intact and untouched, quietly resting in The Paradis, which has remained unchanged for over 200 years and now forms the very heart and soul of the modern A.E.Dor.
Located in the heart of Jarnac, A.E.Dor still enjoys a reputation built on a crusading passion to source and produce the very best Cognacs that the region has to offer. Enjoying the benefits of being a producer as well as a negotiant, the art of blending forms the foundation of the house's quest to produce a range of Cognacs that truly express the character and essence of the Cognac region.
This not only manifests itself in the selection of grape varieties, terroir and various crus within the Cognac region, but also in the choice of cellaring conditions, with each cellar being selected for its particular level of humidity, a factor that A.E.Dor believe is a fundamental determinant of the cognac's style and quality.
