The Louis Royer Carnet de Cave No.1 is a limited-edition French Cognac made from a carefully selected blend of eaux-de-vie aged for at least eight years.
Produced by Maison Louis Royer, founded in 1853 in Jarnac, this expression combines spirits from three Cognac growing areas: Fins Bois, Bons Bois and Petite Champagne.
The eaux-de-vie are matured in French oak barrels in a humid cellar, developing a distinctive balance between fruit freshness and gentle oak sweetness.
The nose opens with lively grapefruit aromas, followed by candied ginger, vanilla and a delicate hint of coconut.
On the palate, the Cognac is round, smooth and balanced, revealing harmonious fruit and spice flavours.
The finish is long and pleasantly complex.
Bottled at 43% ABV and presented in a wooden gift box, this release of approximately 1,000 bottles is an appealing choice for collectors and enthusiasts of elegant, fruit-driven Cognac.
Description
A Limited Edition from Maison Louis Royer
The Louis Royer Carnet de Cave No.1 is the first release in the Carnet de Cave collection, created to highlight distinctive Cognac expressions selected by Maison Louis Royer.
Founded in 1853 in Jarnac, the house has a long history of selecting, ageing and blending Cognac eaux-de-vie.
This limited edition was produced in approximately 1,000 bottles and presented in an elegant wooden gift box.
A Blend of Three Cognac Crus
Carnet de Cave No.1 combines eaux-de-vie from Fins Bois, Bons Bois and Petite Champagne.
Each growing area contributes different characteristics to the final blend.
Fins Bois is particularly associated with fruit-driven spirits, while Petite Champagne is recognised for the finesse and ageing potential of its eaux-de-vie.
The combination of three crus allows the cellar master to create a balanced Cognac with both freshness and aromatic depth.
A Minimum of Eight Years in French Oak
All the eaux-de-vie in the blend have matured for at least eight years in French oak barrels.
Ageing takes place in a humid cellar, where the spirits gradually develop additional complexity.
The oak contributes gentle vanilla and spice notes while allowing the natural fruit character to remain expressive.
This Cognac belongs to the Napoléon age category, which is distinct from the older XO classification.
Tasting Notes
The nose opens with fresh, tangy grapefruit aromas.
A delicate hint of candied ginger introduces an appealing spicy dimension.
Vanilla and subtle coconut notes gradually emerge, adding warmth and softness.
On the palate, the texture is smooth and rounded, with a pleasing balance between fruit freshness, gentle sweetness and spice.
The finish is long, elegant and pleasantly complex.
Serving Recommendations
Bottled at 43% ABV, Louis Royer Carnet de Cave No.1 is best enjoyed neat in a tulip-shaped tasting glass.
Allow several minutes for the aromas to develop before tasting.
It can also be served over a large ice cube for a fresher expression.
The grapefruit and ginger notes make this Cognac particularly interesting for enthusiasts who appreciate lively, aromatic French spirits.
