Martell XO Cognac

I've compared this one to J.Dupont XO Art Deco side by side... In conclusion, this one is more rubust, fuller body, more fruity on nose and almost the same length of aftertaste, with totally different aromas. On nose, aromas of prune, plum, leather.. all packed with firm notes. In mouth, the body is firm, robust and spicy, but not too aggressive (may be a little for me since I normally prefer gentle to robust) with notes of black and blue fruits, fig, cedar wood, leather, cinnamon, wood... body is more massive than J.Dupont., with almost the same length of aftertaste. It's a very nice by the book XO for someone who prefer bold cognac (or bold wine).. It might be a little too bold for me, but good one by the way.

Sticky toffee, deep oak, burnt caramel and ginger bread. Deep and gluey, silky and sticky a Nice old cognac, not to be wasted in a cocktail (except maybe an old fashioned).
