Prosper Delord was a travelling distiller who upon discovering Armagnac fell in love with the spirit and decided to start Maison Delord in 1893. Today Jerome and Sylvain Delord, Propers great grandchildren continue the tradition with the same passion, knowledge and love that has been handed down through the generations.

In 1865, inspired by a decorative handle of his offi ce window, Maurice Hennessy created the now-famous star symbol that he would use to classify his Cognacs. Thus was born the 3- Star Cognac, better known today as Hennessy VS which is a complex blend of more than forty eaux-de-vie (brandy parcels) from the four premier growing areas of the Cognac region.

A smooth and mellow cognac that is a true cocktail of aromas, at once fresh, rounded and woody.

Treat yourself to a hug from this homely and decadent fruitcake in a glass. Packed with brandy-buzzed pudding, dried fruit, oak and a hint of smoke on the palate, our limited-release Brandy & PX Sherry Cask will warm you from tongue to toes. From a thoughtful selection of our Bothwell Distillery’s bourbon, sherry and white oak casks to a balance of both Seppeltsfield PX Sherry and Lark brandy barrels comes a mosaic of a single malt both quaint and comforting. Full of dark forest fruits, bright citrus peel and Tasmanian brandy blanketed in toasted oak, this indulgent little dram is as a slice of fruitcake and a cuppa. A sticky, plummy, homemade fruit cake in a glass, Orange peel-infused caramel pudding topped with spices. Dried fruits play off the rich, earthy oak.

This vintage Cognac comes from a family of public notaries who has been located close to the city of Cognac for many generations. This Petite Champagne was part of the inheritance of the father, who had bequeathed his stocks of Cognac to his wife and his son, who was public notary like him. The father has bought this batch on January 1974 to one of his clients, who was at the time the President of one of the most important Cognac Houses. Unfortunately, when the father passed away, his wife and his son were in disagreement and the succession was blocked until we propose a solution. This is a very “sentimental” cognac, stored under State control since the 25th of January 1974, in a very humid cellar located on the bank of the Charente river in the city center of Cognac. This cellar is today the Cognac Museum. The harvest 1973 was abundant ( 62% compared to the harvest 1972 in Petite Champagne!) and was qualified of “harvest of the century” at the time. Warm gold colour, with amber lights. The nose is rich and unctuous; ripe fruits, dark-red plums, Mirabelle plums, spices (curcuma, cardamom, pepper) and sandalwood, cedar scents. Surrounding the fruits, the lovely old rancio nose that well-matured Cognac develops. The taste increase the fruity delicacies (plums again, dark chocolate with cinnamon) and the spicy side (tobacco, nutmeg). At the end, slightly bitter as coffee beans, complexity and elegancy of a controlled rancio.

A balanced cognac, marked by an oaky taste. Its time spent ageing in a barrel infuses it with complex aromas along with notes of caramelised dried fruits and prunes. This tone adds a number of rich qualities to a cocktail.

An exceptional cognac made mainly of four crus, Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Fin Bois and Bons Bois. Its warm amber color and its silver label will make you spot it at first glance. Bisquit & Dubouche VSOP is slowly matured in french oak barrels for a minimum of 4 years. A core of ripe fruits disclosing aromas of apricot and honey. Then a spicy sense of cinnamon and clove, ended by a floral smell of rose. Smoothness and mellowness made unique by a teasing interplay of aromas. Notes of honeysuckle, citrus, and mango.

Widely regarded as one of the greatest Cognacs, Hennessy has a tradition of producing Cognacs of the highest quality. The VSOP from Hennessy is the epitome of balance and class and is a blend of 60 different eaux-de-vie aged up to 15 years. Every aspect of this Cognac is perfectly proportioned and demands to be drunk slowly, unadulterated and savoured.

A rich and satisfying Cognac, Martell Cordon Bleu is among the best you can find. Its individual taste sets it aside from the more 'standard' Cognacs.

Martell VSOP is the connoisseur's choice. A complex and smooth Cognac made from carefully blended mature
