In the most opulent of traditions, Louis XIII is meticulously crafted by expertly blending the most ancient and exquisite eaux-de-vie. However, in the year of our lord 2004, the esteemed cellar master Pierrette Trichet stumbled upon a tierçon (cask) of such unparalleled aroma and bouquet that it was deemed worthy of standing alone as a single, unblended cognac, now renowned as the illustrious Rare Cask 43.8.
In the year of our Lord 2009, Trichet, aided by her esteemed deputy Baptiste Loiseau, unearthed yet another cask of unparalleled distinction. Henceforth, the exquisite Rare Cask 42.6 (wherein the numbers denote the alcohol content in percentage) came into existence.
Once more, it has come to pass. The opulent third iteration of the esteemed Rare Cask was discovered by the illustrious Loiseau, who ascended to the position of fifth-generation cellar master at the prestigious Louis XIII, following in the footsteps of the esteemed Trichet. One year prior, I had the pleasure of observing a most exquisite and remarkable tierçon, displaying subtle yet extraordinary qualities. Nearly a decade had elapsed since the unearthing of the previous Rare Cask, when the bounty of nature was bestowed upon us,” proclaimed Loiseau, recounting the discovery with great aplomb.
