Godet Antarctica Icy White
Godet Antarctica Icy White is a unique, colorless cognac that breaks the boundaries of tradition. Inspired by a daring sailing expedition to Antarctica led by Jean-Jacques Godet, this cognac embodies the purity and strength of the icy continent. It is a blend of 99% cognac and 1% brandy, aged in hundred-year-old oak barrels that no longer impart tannins or color.
Flavor Profile: This cognac offers a delicate and sensual experience with a subtle icy freshness. The nose is aromatic with notes of caramel, chamomile, fresh apricots, oak, and pine needles. The palate begins with a burst of white pepper, tempered by vanilla, dried fruit, and caramel. The apricot from the nose returns in the finish.
Ingredients: Godet Antarctica Icy White is made from the rare Folle Blanche grape, a variety that was nearly wiped out by the Phylloxera epidemic in the nineteenth century. The cognac is a blend of 99% cognac wine eau-de-vie and 1% brandy.
Background: In March 2008, Jean-Jacques Godet undertook an expedition to Antarctica, setting a world record by being the first small yacht to sail past the 300 km mark below the 70th parallel. To honor this achievement, Cognac Godet created this unique white cognac.
Serving Tips: Godet Antarctica Icy White is best served chilled. It can be enjoyed neat or as a fascinating ingredient in cocktails. The delicate and refreshing taste makes it a perfect choice for an adventurous and refreshing drinking experience.
