Hermitage Siècle d’Or 100 Year Old Cognac: A Century of Mastery

The Hermitage Siècle d’Or 100 Year Old Cognac stands as an extraordinary testament to the art of cognac making, having spent a century maturing in oak barrels deep within the cellars of Grande Champagne. This exceptional release offers collectors and connoisseurs a rare opportunity to experience history in a glass, embodying a level of craftsmanship that few have the privilege to taste. Unearthed from a venerable estate dating back to the 1880s, the Siècle d’Or, or “Century of Gold,” encapsulates the highest standards of distillation and ageing, carried through generations of expertise. From its terroir in Lignières Sonneville, this rare nectar is made from the finest Ugni Blanc grapes, distilled on traditional Alembic Charentais stills and aged in Segonzac, where it has developed the prized ‘rancio’ qualities that are so sought after by cognac aficionados.

Aged for an incredible 100 years, the Hermitage Siècle d’Or 100 Year Old Cognac possesses a level of complexity that few spirits can match. Its bouquet is an intricate weave of cocoa, dried fig, burnt sugar, truffle, and cloves, each element matured to perfection over the course of a century. On the palate, these aromas evolve into an extraordinary symphony of flavours: rich notes of cocoa and burnt toffee give way to a deep ginger spice, earthy mushroom, and the sweetness of candied fruit. The finish is both long and memorable, with a distinct kumquat flavour that lingers on the tongue, leaving an indelible impression of its Grande Champagne heritage. The balance and depth of this cognac are unrivalled, a reflection of the patience and mastery involved in its creation.

For the cognac collector, the Hermitage Siècle d’Or 100 Year Old Cognac is nothing short of a masterpiece. Its rarity alone makes it a prized possession; only a handful of cognacs have been aged for a century, and even fewer have retained the quality and integrity that this one exhibits. Encased in a stunning hand-blown crystal decanter, crafted by the renowned Cumbria Crystal artisans, each bottle is a work of art in itself. The gold-leaf engraving on the decanter further enhances its status as a collector’s item, presenting a bottle that is as beautiful as the cognac it holds. Whether displayed in a private collection or kept as an heirloom to pass through generations, the Siècle d’Or offers more than just a tasting experience—it offers a legacy.

This release is also the perfect gift for those who appreciate the finer things in life. With only 68 decanters available worldwide, gifting one of these limited-edition decanters, is akin to presenting a piece of history. The meticulous craftsmanship of both the cognac and its decanter makes it an exceptional choice for significant milestones or as a gesture of the highest regard. Whether for a discerning connoisseur or as a statement piece for an extraordinary occasion, this 100 year old cognac represents the pinnacle of luxury.

To gift the Hermitage Siècle d’Or 100 Year Old Cognac is to bestow an experience of unparalleled sophistication, one that will be cherished and remembered for years to come.
