Martell XO Cognac (1x100cl)

This is the litre size of Martell XO and it comes with a box, which is why it moves so fast around gift season. XO means the youngest brandy in the blend has had at least ten years in cask, so it's a step up in weight and depth from VSOP.

Mid-Autumn, client gifts, wedding banquets, a big family dinner where one bottle has to go round the whole table: that's where the 1 litre format earns its keep. Free HK delivery over HK$800, flat HK$80 below, 2-5 business days.

Tasting notes

XO Cognac typically shows dried fruit, spice and a richer, longer finish than younger grades. Serve neat in a tulip glass, at room temperature, and take your time with it.
