Almost every bottle of cognac carries letters that indicate how long the youngest eau-de-vie in the blend has matured. VS means at least two years, VSOP at least four and XO at least ten.
Note the word youngest. A cognac is almost always a blend of different vintages, and the designation refers to the youngest of them. In practice, an XO often contains much older cognac.
Cognac comes from a defined area around the town of the same name, is distilled twice in copper stills and matures in French oak. Serve it at room temperature in a tulip glass. In a large balloon glass the alcohol evaporates too quickly.
The letters refer to the youngest cognac in the bottle. An XO often contains much older stuff.
