Product Description
From Grammy®-nominated artist and entrepreneur Quavo and leading global spirits company Sazerac comes White X Cognac, a fresh, modern, and light white cognac offering. White X Cognac will be one of the first and only white cognacs available in the United States and globally.
“What I love about White X is that it’s an entirely different drink experience than any other type of cognac. I’m a big believer in challenging the status quo, and I think that’s the role of white cognac. White X is for those who aren’t afraid to shake things up, put in the work and celebrate their accomplishments. This is the drink they’ve been waiting for. Neat or in a cocktail, White X is smooth and sippable – a reward for the hustle.” - Quavo
White X Cognac utilizes the finest white grapes from the Cognac region of France to produce a light, gentle, and slightly fruity expression. Undergoing a double distillation, this cognac sustains floral and vanilla notes. Enjoy White X Cognac neat, on the rocks, or with your favorite mixer.
Leading global spirits company Sazerac has unveiled White X Cognac, an impressive new expression, in partnership with Grammy®-nominated artist and entrepreneur Quavo.
White X Cognac is on a mission to disrupt the category. Its smooth, sweet, mixable yet complex flavour profile opens up white cognac to a fresh new audience. Traditionally available in the Caribbean and duty free, its launch brings white cognac to the US and, through BlockBar, to international spirits lovers for the first time.
Light, bright and remarkably versatile, white cognac is an emerging, largely undiscovered spirit. This release offers the delicacy and elegance of a young Cognac paired with rich, lingering fruit notes for a drinking experience like no other.
White X Cognac brings a profound modernity to Cognac, yet it was crafted at one of France’s most storied houses. Domaine Sazerac de Segonzac boasts almost four centuries of rich history. For generations, it has exactingly distilled and blended the finest spirits – including the Cognac at the heart of the original Sazerac cocktail in the 1850s. The company continues this legacy, merging time-honoured traditions with the tastes of today.
Tasting Notes
Clear and golden straw in colour, White X Cognac offers the delicacy of a youthful Cognac but boasts rich flavours that linger. It is fresh and light on the nose with a slight sweetness and intense notes of white and yellow peaches, elegant vanilla, and an undertone of dried rose petals. The palate opens with gentle white stone fruit, creamy and soft vanilla, and a subtle hint of tannin devoid of bitterness. White X Cognac’s finish is meltingly smooth, elegant, and extremely long for a younger Cognac.
- COLOUR: Golden straw, excellent clarity.
- NOSE: Fresh and light, a slight sweetness, with intense notes of white and yellow stone-fruit (peaches), elegant vanilla and just a hint of dried flower petals (rose).
