Cognac Park - Borderies Mizunara Single Cask 2006

Cognac Park Borderies Mizunara Single Cask 2006 derives its uniqueness from a marriage between a 100% Borderies single-vintage cognac distilled in 2006 and maturation in Mizunara oak barrels, an extremely rare Japanese wood found in the legendary Nikko forest. This complex wood gives the Park Cognac a unique, slightly spicy flavor and depth, while the Borderies give it roundness, sweetness and notes of violets. 

It is composed of eaux-de-vie distilled in 2006 and aged in oak barrels. After 10 months in new barrels, the cognac is transferred to 400-liter red barrels, where it stays for several years and acquires a wide range of aromas. At the end of its aging period, the blend is matured for 6 months in new Mizunara barrels, with a capacity of 500 liters. 

This Cognac has a multitude of complex and mixed aromas: cedar wood, plum, candied orange, dried fig, clove, as well as a slightly smoky tone and a touch of vanilla. 

A family business created in 1880 by Gaston Tessendier, the Distillery owns today more than 25 hectares of vineyards in the heart of the most exclusive "cru" of the Cognac region: the Borderies. 4th generation Cellar Masters Lilian and Jérôme Tessendier distill, compose and blend the eaux-de-vie which, thanks to the rigor and daily attention of the whole team, will become Cognac Park. The house is know for its pure, delicate and complex style.
