The story behind it

The maker

Maison Ferrand was revived by Alexandre Gabriel in 1989 with a mission to preserve artisanal French spirits and classical distillation methods. Located in the heart of the prestigious Grande Champagne region, the estate has become a beacon for historic, small-batch spirit production.

How it is made

Distilled in traditional copper alembic pot stills, this Cognac begins its life in French oak barrels before undergoing a secondary maturation. The double cask technique utilizes ancient sweet wine casks to impart an unparalleled depth of complexity.
