Pre-sale available now, begins shipping July 2026.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eD'USSÉ was founded as a joint venture between Jay-Z and Bacardi, launched in 2012 and produced at the historic Château de Cognac in the Grande Champagne cru. The VSOP expression uses eaux-de-vie from all four Cognac crus selected by Maître de Chai Michel Casavecchia, aged a minimum of four and a half years in Limousin oak for the rounded dried fruit, vanilla, and warming spice that defines the house style. The Jay-Z30 designation marks 30 years since Reasonable Doubt (1996) established Jay-Z as a defining voice in hip-hop — making this release a significant collector's item for both cognac enthusiasts and fans of the artist's legacy. The bottle design reflects the anniversary milestone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Toasted oak, dried fruit, vanilla, and warm spice — the D'USSÉ VSOP house character\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smooth and full-bodied — caramel, dried apricot, honey, and baking spice\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm and lingering with oak and subtle sweetness\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e D'USSÉ Cognac — Château de Cognac, Grande Champagne (est. 1494)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e VSOP Cognac — Limited Edition\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAnniversary:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jay-Z 30th anniversary in music\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAging:\u003c\/strong\u003e Minimum 4.5 years in Limousin oak\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40% (80 Proof)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAvailability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pre-sale — begins shipping July 2026\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/dusse\"\u003eD'USSÉ at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\"mainEntity\":[{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What does Jay-Z30 commemorate?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Jay-Z's 30th anniversary in the music industry, marking three decades since Reasonable Doubt (1996) established him as a defining voice in hip-hop.
