When a cognac exhibits excellence of craft and blend, recognition of it often precedes the first taste. Courvoisier cognac artisans offer you an extraordinary opportunity to experience this in every bottle of their Initiale Extra. Recognizing the importance of aromas at each step in the aging process of their art, they nurture the initial teroire, with attention to the characteristics of the grapes, the casks, and even the environment in which the cognac is aged in order to produce a truly unique and exquisite finished spirit. Initiale Extra is known for its mellow truffle undertones, essences of oak and deeply spiced, hot fruitcake. These are the result of nurturing the dark, caramel notes and dried fruity nose of the original port. But the loamy, richness of truffles comes from the packed earth floor of the barrel house, which imparts its aroma over the years of aging. Courvoisier artisans are historians of the grape as well as sculptors of new and vivid flavors through delicate blending. Each glass of Initial Extra is a masterpiece, created for you.
