Mauxion Lot 45 Bons Bois Cognac has a very refined and vibrant aroma. It offers fresh notes of lime, sour plums, and passion fruits, along with white blossoms, jasmine tea, and ginger. There are also darker scents like moss, fallen autumn leaves, dark honey, and hints of vanilla.
On the palate, it has excellent mintiness, accompanied by flavors of peach, tangerines, plums, honey, and raisins. Spicy notes, such as cinnamon and clove, are present, as well as hints of cigar boxes, but it never becomes tannic or overtly woody. There are also some floral touches, and the finish features bergamot and cedar.
The finish is quite long, developing a light bitter edge, but it remains fresh and citrusy, with mint, licorice, and a touch of gentian.

The origins of the Mauxion family date back to 1575 with the birth of Pierre Mauxion in the village of Houlette. Today, the estate is still home to the Mauxion family after thirteen generations. Antoine Mauxion was the first in the family to produce eaux-de-vie, starting in 1743, and since then, ten generations have followed in his footsteps. Today, Mauxion Selection continues to uphold the original traditions in vineyard care and the production of high-class, quality eaux-de-vie.
Mauxion Selection offers a unique range of single-cru expressions, available in various formats. All cognacs produced by Mauxion Selection come from the prestigious terroirs of Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, Fins Bois, Bons Bois and Bois Ordinaires.
To preserve the pure flavor of their eaux-de-vie, Mauxion Selection cognacs are bottled at cask strength, with no blending or reduction, allowing the spirits to develop exceptional complexity and depth. While this meticulous selection process may result in limited quantities, it ensures a cognac of unmatched quality, every time.
