Navarre is one of the top independent artisan distillers making traditional Cognacs in the heart of the Grande Champagne, Cognac's epicenter for the most storied and long lived spirits of the region. The family domaine dates to 1811 and is currently operated and cared for by fourth generation Jacky Navarre. Cravache D'Or (Golden Whip) is a new expression to the States but like everything from this precious domaine, quantities are very limited. Comprised of casks each aged for a minimum of 20yrs at the estate's naturally humid chais, the spirit mostly comes to proof naturally through slow evaporation leaving a concentrated spirit that manages not to overwhelm with tannins or brute force.
