Distillery Information

A cognac is a form of brandy made from white grapes. In order for it to be classified as Cognac, it must be made in the Cognac region of France. Felix Courvoisier knew that the best cognac can only be produced from Colombard, Folle Blanche or Ugni Blanc grapes.
Cognac can only be made from grapes grown in the strictly defined Cognac region of France. It must be made from the juice of at least one of three particular grapes, the most common being Ugni Blanc and the other two being Folle Blanche and Colombard.
Official recognition followed in 1983 when Courvoisier was the first cognac to be awarded the Prestige de la France. Two further shifts of ownership followed, in both the USA and Asia. And in 2014, Beam Suntory became the owners of Courvoisier, opening this House to the world as a truly global brand.
Cognac distillation is performed in a two-stage process, with a specific Charentais copper still, with its pot (or boiler), its swan's necks ans its cooler and its condensing coil. The white wine, harvested in the Controlled Appellation Area, is introduced in the pot and brought to the boiling point.
Courvoisier (French pronunciation: [kuʁvwazje]) is a brand of cognac, with production based in the town of Jarnac in the Charente region of France.
