On the palate it shows a soft solidity, with a balanced body that allows for a pleasant warm persistence; the sip is clean and well defined, suited to those looking for a refined spirit that is not overly austere. It is best appreciated at room temperature in a tulip glass, perfect as a contemplative after-dinner drink or paired with dark chocolate, dried fruit and cheeses with a savory texture. Daniel Bouju's offering, distributed by Folonari, remains understated and enjoyable.

Distillation
For the Daniel Bouju cognacs: distillation in a traditional discontinuous pot still (historic still of 16.5 hl) and subsequent maturation in oak barrels; for the Tenute Folonari grappas: discontinuous distillation using steam-heated copper stills.
Ageing
Maturation in wooden/oak barrels for the cognacs and ageing in various wooden casks (in some cases barrique) for the assorted grappas.
