FAQs
Courvoisier does not carry a vintage date on standard expressions. The age statements, VS, VSOP, XO, refer to the minimum age of the youngest eau de vie in the blend. VS indicates a minimum two year age, VSOP four years, and XO ten years under current BNIC regulations. For a specific production batch date, check the bottle's back label or lot code. Courvoisier XO can contain significantly older eaux de vie than the minimum legal requirement.
Courvoisier VS is best used as a cocktail base in a Sidecar or Cognac Sour, where its fresh fruit and light oak character benefits from the structure that citrus and sugar provide. Courvoisier VSOP can be appreciated neat at room temperature or in a tulip glass, where warming in the hand opens the dried apricot, vanilla, and baking spice profile. XO should be served neat, slightly below room temperature, in a stemmed tulip glass that concentrates the aromatic complexity.
Yes. Courvoisier is a Cognac, which is a legally protected category of brandy produced within the Cognac appellation in the Charente department of France from specific grape varieties, primarily Ugni Blanc, and distilled in traditional Charentais copper pot stills. All Cognac is brandy, but not all brandy is Cognac. Courvoisier, founded in Jarnac, is one of the four major Cognac houses alongside Hennessy, Rémy Martin, and Martell.
Courvoisier Centenary Reserve is a highly sought collector's Cognac, produced to commemorate significant anniversaries of the house. Values vary significantly depending on condition, original packaging, and the specific release year. At specialist spirits auction, bottles in good condition with original packaging can achieve between €500 and several thousand euros depending on rarity and provenance. For a current market valuation, consulting recent results at Whisky Auctioneer, Sotheby's Wine, or Hart Davis Hart is advisable.
