Normandin-Mercier “Pic d’Orizaba” – Les Sommets du Cognac
Pico de Orizaba towers at 5 636 m; this single-cask Cognac rises to the same figure in alcohol: 56.4 %. No dilution, no blend, no modification—just pure spirit drawn from one barrel and one cru, bottled uncut to mirror the mountain’s untouched power.
The profile fuses Mexican-inspired spice—citrus, habanero, cumin—with lush tropical fruit, delivering both intensity and poise in every sip.
Presentation of the bottle
The clear glass reveals its rich amber core. A minimalist label shows the outline of Pico de Orizaba with the paired 5 636 m / 56.4 % notation. Each bottle is hand-numbered; a red wax seal hints at volcanic origins and underlines the limited run.
How to drink
Savour neat to appreciate the full altitude-matched strength, or add a few drops of water to open extra layers of cacao and guava. Pair with dark chocolate, roasted pepitas or aged Manchego.
