This iconic cognac house helped celebrate the Eiffel Tower's opening in 1889 and has some blends that are older than the people drinking them. Guess which brand is approaching its 200th
anniversary in 2028.
- Courvoisier will celebrate its 200th anniversary in 2028, making it one of the oldest cognac houses.
- Courvoisier was the official Cognac
for the Eiffel Tower opening dinner in 1889. One of the greatest occasions the world has ever seen.
- Some Courvoisier blends contain spirits older than many of the people drinking
them. The House maintains reserves of eaux-de-vie aged for decades, with master blenders drawing from generations of aging stock to create select expressions.
- Cognac
starts as wine—not grain. Unlike whiskey, Courvoisier is made from grapes, primarily Ugni Blanc, which are first turned into wine, then double-distilled and aged in French oak
barrels.
