Pierre Ferrand Ambre (1er Cru) Cognac 750ml

2021 San Francisco World Spirits Competition Double Gold Medal Winner In the 19th century, when the modern art of the bar was born, no spirit was more prized for mixing drinks than cognac. Ferrand 1840 Original Formula represents our attempt to recreate the kind of cognac that the pioneers in the bars used during that period. Modeled on an extraordinarily rare 1840 bottle of Pinet-Castillon Cognac, and made with the blending techniques from this era, it is rich, concentrated and highly mixable, in the 1840s style. Proof: 90

A fitting tribute to each generation and savoir-faire of this Cognac house, the Ferrand 10 Generations Cognac is a premium blend from the Premier Cru, the Grande Champagne. Arriving in an intricate traditional decanter illustrated with their family tree, it is a wonderful collector’s edition. Each of the ten generations of Cognac masters have added a unique twist to the knowledge of the vine and distillation; transposing their own character and graft into the precious nectar.

Created using Ugni Blanc grapes grown in the Grande Champagne, its finesse comes as no surprise. The optimal maritime climate combined with chalky soil and limestone means that the light, floral nature of eaux-de-vie is highly desirable in a Cognac.
