D’USSÉ XO Cognac launched soon?

So far you cannot find an announcement about the D’Ussé XO Cognac. But the introduction will happen soon, this is sure. Bacardi will try to enter the market  with different price levels and target markets. Therefore, a XO edition of the dusse cognac is sure.

Bacardi unveiled its latest addition to the brand – a new ultra premium Cognac brand christened D’ussé, pronounced as ‘dew-say’. The Cognac was witnessed for the first time at the private tasting for a few journalists at New York. The product is yet to be launched (next month) and would be available for sales in the month of September (in the USA).

Probably a XO D’Ussé Cognac and a VS D’ussé Cognac will follow and complete the range. The idea is to use D’ussé for cocktails.

The house of Otard Cognac dates back to 1795 and is located in the grand Chateau de Cognac, a 15th century building overlooking the Charente River in Cognac.  Baron Otard purchased this chateau because the cellars below would provide unique properties to aid the aging of his cognacs.
