Hine Rare VSOP is a blend of eaux-de-vie coming exclusively from the Grande and Petite Champagne with about 60% of the blend being Grande Champagne. The youngest eaux-de-vie in Hine Rare VSOP is about 6 years old but some reach up to 12 years, the average being around 8 years. On the nose, Hine Rare VSOP reveals fruity and floral aromas with hints of honey and jasmin. On the palate, it shows great smoothness with the traditional finesse of all Cognac blended by Thomas Hine.
