PM Spirits Project Cognac Hommage A Yves & Jean Noel Pelletant (750ml)

PM Spirits Project Cognac Hommage à Yves & Jean-Noël Pelletant is a thoughtful, terroir-driven Cognac bottled through the PM Spirits Project in collaboration with Yves and Jean-Noël Pelletant, longtime growers known for producing traditionally made Cognac with a strong sense of place and minimal intervention.

This bottling leans far away from the glossy, heavily manipulated house style many drinkers associate with Cognac. Instead, it emphasizes purity, texture, and the natural character of the distillate, with careful aging that supports the spirit rather than overwhelming it with oak.

The nose opens with orchard fruit, dried apricot, orange zest, acacia honey, fresh herbs, white flowers, and soft spice, alongside subtle notes of almond, tea leaf, and tobacco. On the palate, it’s energetic and layered with flavors of pear, candied citrus, vanilla, roasted nuts, baking spice, and gentle oak carried by a vibrant, lifted texture.

There’s a transparency to this Cognac that feels especially compelling for drinkers who appreciate grower Champagne, agricole rhum, or traditionally made whisky. The fruit remains vivid, the oak stays restrained, and the spirit retains a real sense of freshness despite its maturity.

Best enjoyed neat with a little time in the glass to allow the aromatics and texture to fully open up.
