Premium luxury vodkas are like snake oil: You pay more and more for a drink whose characterful marketing spiel seeks to justify a product increasingly refined into neutrality. What is interesting about Golovkine is not the 100% French wheat from Beauce, or it's five initial distillations in the Charentes region giving ever more exquisite refinement and purity but the all important and unique sixth distillation through old alembic copper stills used for Cognac. This final, inspired treatment ensures Golovkine has a depth of flavour and the merest hint of smokiness, as if tasted from warm, full Russian lips recently done sucking on a Gauloises.
This bottle of wine boasts plenty of plum fruit on ripe tannins, like an elegant couple dancing in a ballroom. This product is presented in a luxury wooden gift box.

For the ABK6 Honey, Elodie chose a ‘single origin’ honey from the Charentes Woods within the Cognac region, and cellar Master Christina Guérin blended a subtle and refined cognac with specific intense honey aromatic flavours.It's elegant and subtle, revealing notes of flowers coming from both the cognac and the honey; jasmine, violet, honeysuckle and rose petals.Then come warm feelings of spices and candied orange followed by vanilla, wood and toffee.
ABK6 is taken from the shorthand that father & daughter team of Francis and Elodie have always used to write their surname, Abécassis, and is pronounced ‘A beh ca sis’. Each quality is blended from a selection of very old eaux-de-vies (much older than is legally required) and showcases the fruit of Domaines Francis Abécassis, composed of Domaine de Dizedon in Grande Champagne, Domaine Champagne Drilhon in Petite Champagne and Domaine de Chez Maillard in Fins Bois.Francis and Elodie firmly believe blending “eaux-de-vie” from their own family estates gives the ABK6 cognacs an inimitable character and depth.
A London Dry gin that owes its character to East Anglia, the barley being from Suffolk and the distillation taking place at Adnam’s in Southwold but most importantly, courtesy of botanist James Firth, the selection of botanicals emphasises the region’s coastal herbs and plants such as Spignal, Bog Myrtle and Wood Aven.
