Lasserre Honey Cognac
Lasserre Honey Cognac is a premium liqueur that harmoniously blends fine French Cognac with natural honey and select spices, resulting in a smooth and flavorful spirit. This innovative creation was developed by Norvel Lasserre, the first African American Cognac producer, who drew inspiration from his French heritage to craft a unique and refined beverage.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: A generous bouquet of fruitiness, where the essence of caramelized apple tart fresh from the oven prevails. Vanilla weaves its way through the aroma, adding a comforting layer of sweetness, while vine flower notes deliver a subtle floral hint. This aromatic symphony is rounded off with whispers of straw and lime tree.
Palate: Bold and lively onset. The harmonious marriage of the spirit’s vigor with the mellowness of honey creates a taste profile that’s both assertive and delightfully smooth.
Finish: Long and indulgent, echoing the nostalgic charm of honey candies. This lingering sweetness coats the palate with a comforting, suave finish.

The development process involved precise selection and rigorous tastings by a dedicated committee, ensuring a delicate and refined taste.
