Kelt VSOP Cognac is a refined expression of time-honored craftsmanship and maritime tradition. Distilled from the finest Ugni Blanc grapes and aged in Limousin oak casks, this cognac undergoes Kelt’s legendary “Tour du Monde” — a three-month ocean voyage that enhances its flavor and texture through natural temperature fluctuations and sea air exposure. The result is a VSOP of remarkable depth, elegance, and smoothness. Available now at Whiskey Caviar.
