Numerous chefs and sommeliers have explored possible Cognac-food pairings, including aged hams, delicious chocolate tarts, and soft cheeses. One fun and original tasting idea is to match Cognacs of different ages with other local products at different stages of maturity. The complementary aromas are then expressed to the full. For a successful pairing, the textures and flavors must enhance one another. Serving wine spirits in small quantities (1\u00a0cl) bring out all the flavors. These surprising pairings are the perfect way for you and your guests to explore the wealth of flavors and sensations that Cognac has to offer.

The Charentes terroir is also home to Charente-Maritime oysters (HCM) and imperial prawns. These go beautifully with a young Cognac on the rocks (VS <em>Frozen<\/em> served at 0\u00b0 C), a refreshing pairing that showcases the region&#8217;s flavors.<\/p>\n<p>Other Charentes gems offer an array of surprising pairings! No visit to the region is complete without tasting Gensac-la-Pallue troutandcaviar with a few sips of young, fruity, floral Cognac. The Charente-Maritime department is home to traditional salmon smoking expertise, passed down from one generation to the next.<\/p>\n<p>You prefer dry land? Why not try Charente truffles &#8211; their aromas resonate amazingly with Cognac?
