Launched in 2014 exclusively in travel retail, VX is a blend of Grey Goose vodka with cognac from the premier cru region of Grande Champagne. VX is short for ‘Vodka Exceptionelle’ and this luxurious vodka is designed to be served over ice.

Created by Francois Thibault, who has not only blended all Grey Goose vodka expressions to date, but was previously a cognac Maitre de Chai, Grey Goose VX is made by blending 95% Grey Goose vodka with 5% cognac. A ratio that allows the vodka’s character to shine harmoniously alongside the more powerful distinctive aroma and flavour of cognac.

Developed by packaging and design agency Linea, VX is presented in Grey Goose’s familiar acid-etched and screen printed bottle but this is squat and decanter-shaped rather than being tale and round like it’s out-and-out vodka siblings, so reinforcing Cognac’s contribution.
