About Courvoisier Cognac

The House of Courvoisier was founded by Felix Courvoisier based on his belief in the power of the collective. It is this conviction that inspired Courvoisier to nurture close relationships with respected artisans and winegrowers to produce its high quality, award-winning Cognac in its hometown of Jarnac since 1828. Courvoisier Cognac has several expressions, which appeal to a variety of Cognac preferences and lifestyles, including VS, VSOP, Avant-Garde Bourbon Cask Edition, XO, Initiale Extra, and the ultimate expression of the House, L’Essence de Courvoisier.
