Non age statement Augier Cognacs featuring a single growth and single grape have been introduced as a reboot from this estate, which has been producing eaux-de-vie since 1643. L'Océanique has the distinction of comprising a distillate made from grapes grown near the Atlantic Ocean on the Island of Oléron, which is technically in the Bois Ordinaires growing region of Cognac. A rare and truly coastal expression that benefits from maritime influences, it features only ugni blanc. It spends some time on fine lees and is distilled once before aging in French oak.

What a wonderful cognac. Very unique, with its maritime notes being reminiscent of a coastal scotch. The nose is full of brine and mint. The arrival is salted caramel and ripe orchard fruits. Im not a cognac connoisseur but this is easily the best I’ve tried.
Almost a butterscotch, and by that I mean a buttery Scotch :-) absent smokey notes.
Very sweet with just a hint of the smokiness and saltiness of a scotch. Very good.
Literally from an island. Hints of citrus and maybe some minerals
tons of honey on the palate, sea salt, Chardonnay on the nose
Surprising, the first nose of a single malt!
