Cognac Delamain - XO Pale & Dry 70 cl

Created in 1920 by Jacques and Robert Delamain, Pale & Dry XO is a direct reference to its diaphanous colour and lightness. This name embodies a strong commitment, unique in the XO category: to produce a cognac with no added sugar or colouring, aged in old oak barrels and, as a result, lighter and much less marked on the palate by the wood. A century later, Pale & Dry XO remains faithful to this original elegance, patiently allowing the fruit of refined eaux-de-vie to develop in majesty.

‘Iconic of the House style, Pale & Dry XO is made exclusively from Grande Champagne eaux-de-vie, matured in 350-litre old Limousin oak casks in our age-old cellars on the banks of the Charente at Vinade in Jarnac. The gradual and meticulous reduction of the degree of cognac to 42% vol. allows us to achieve the perfect balance between strength and natural sweetness, emblematic of Pale & Dry XO.’ Charles Braastad, Cellar Master
