Meukow VSOP Superior Cognac

Description

A Tale of Two Brothers: Meukow VSOP Cognac

The multi-award-winning Meukow VSOP Superior Cognac is well worthy of its acclaim. The House of Meukow blends together vintages from all six cognac regions for their expressions, using casks aged a year longer than required to create this sumptuous VSOP.

Adorned in some of the most prestigious competitions and tastings around the world, the incredible roundness of Meukow VSOP Cognac is thanks to the meticulous selection of eaux-de-vie within the blend. Rich, yet delicate tannins partner with delicious dried fruit aromas to make this a truly outstanding Cognac for the price.

Meukow was founded by two brothers from Silesia, August-Christophe and Gustav Meukow, and is today one of the few Russian Cognac brands in the Charente region. Initially sent to source Cognac for Tsar Alexander II in 1850, the brothers travelled back and forth for years in their search for the most prestigious casks. Seeing an opportunity to start up business for themselves, in 1862 they decided to remain in France and opened their distillery.

The company grew rapidly, managed under the influence of prestigious shareholders like Henri Bouraud, the Mayor of Cognac from 1849 to 1869. Today, Meukow Cognac is distributed in over 80 countries around the world.
