Delamain Pale & Dry XO

Created in 1920 by Jacques and Robert Delamain, Pale & Dry XO directly refers to its diaphanous colour and its lightness

• The name embodies a strong bias, unique in the XO category: crafting a cognac without added sugar or colouring, aged in old oak barrels, and thus clearer and less marked by the taste of wood
• A century after it's global launch, Pale & Dry XO remains loyal to this original elegance, which, patiently allows the eaux-de-vie to develop majestically
• An icon of the Delamain style, Pale & Dry XO is made exclusively from eaux-de-vie of Grande Champagne, matured in 350-litre barrels of old Limousin oak, in our centuries-old cellars on the banks of the Charente, from Vinade to Jarnac
• The progressive, meticulous reduction of the cognac's ABV to 42% allows for the perfect balance between power and natural sweetness
• A delicate nose of vanilla and apricot, enveloped by fresh notes of passion fruit, orange zest and almond gives way on the palate to spice and ginger
