Cognac has a dazzling diversity. As a spirit it can be delicious straight off the still, full of fruit and energy. It can be brilliant with a relatively short time in oak to soften the edges and add a little warmth. It can take the long years of maturation in its stride, with some eaux-de-vie only hitting their prime after several decades.

Featuring insights and liquids from Château Beaulon with Loic Barth, W.V. Baker with Benjamin Baker and Benoit Choplin of Delamain, demonstrating production techniques and their impact on flavour.
