Bache Gabrielsen VS Tre Kors Cognac
Introducing the Bache Gabrielsen VS Tre Kors, a premium cognac with a rich history and exquisite flavor profile. Crafted with passion and precision, this cognac stands out for its unique heritage and unparalleled taste.
Historical Significance
The Bache Gabrielsen VS Tre Kors traces its roots back to a challenging era in Norway’s history. From 1916 to 1926, Norway experienced a prohibition period, making it difficult for founder Thomas Bache-Gabrielsen to conduct business. During this time, alcohol could only be purchased from pharmacies. To navigate this restriction, Thomas Bache-Gabrielsen ingeniously replaced the traditional Three Stars with Three Red Crosses on the labels, a distinctive feature that endures today, albeit now in white.
Aromas and Flavor Profile
This exceptional cognac captivates the senses with its complex bouquet. On the nose, you will first encounter inviting aromas of vanilla, derived from Limousine oak casks. These are complemented by hints of citrus fruits and subtle spices. The palate is equally impressive, offering a subtle and fruity taste with a long, fresh finish. This harmonious blend is a testament to the successful marriage of powerful young eaux-de-vie with more mature cognac.
Craftsmanship and Aging
The Bache Gabrielsen VS Tre Kors is made from 100% Ugni-Blanc grapes, sourced from the renowned Fins Bois and Petite Champagne growing areas. Its stunning copper-gold color is the result of a minimum of two years of aging in Limousine oak casks. This careful aging process imbues the cognac with its distinctive character and complexity.
Expert Endorsement
According to the Cellar Master, “We worked really hard throughout the aging process to create the uniqueness which is Tre Kors. Developing all its gourmet notes whilst keeping the base of fresh oak wood.” This dedication ensures that each bottle of Bache Gabrielsen VS Tre Kors delivers an unparalleled tasting experience.
