This 25 year old cognac was introduced as a product in 1920. The blend consists of selected eaux-de-vie from the Grande Champagne region producers and growers.
Delamain is a producer of cognac, based in Jarnac, France. Delamain is one of the oldest Cognac houses and has been continuously family run since its establishment in 1824 although its roots in the cognac trade go back even further, beginning shortly after the arrival in France of Irishman James Delamain in 1751. Nine generations later, James’s direct descendant, Charles Braastad, serves as Delamain Cognac’s Managing Director. The House of Delamain only produces XO and above cognacs and only produces cognacs produced from eaux de vie from cognac’s Grande Champagne region, which is widely recognized as cognac’s finest terroir. This XO-only, Grande Champagne-only focus is unique amongst cognac houses. In 2017, the Bollinger champagne and wine group deepened a longstanding relationship with the House of Delamain and became Delamain's majority shareholder.
The name Pale & Dry is related to the pale colour, the word dry & refers to the sweet character of the Cognac. On the palate it has floral and spice aromas giving way to woody herbs, raisins, vanilla and a hint of chocolate. &
