On our last post we embedded a guide on reading cognac labels. After publishing that post we went on a little hunt on the web to see if we could find a collection of labels. Our first stop was Cognac Museums from around the world (we will cover cognac museums on a separate post) but there wasn’t much to find or see. When we were about to give up hope we stumbled across a site that can very well be called a gold mine, well, at least to cognac lovers. The site belongs to a man who has collected over 15,000 labels and some date back to the 1800s. The last 24 hours or so has been nothing but pure joy and excitement as we went through some of the oldest cognac labels. Of course, we haven’t finished watching them all, not yet. Please take a look at a few samples that we managed to grab from the site .
The man behind this collection is Paul Ronne. Here at cognac.com, we like to educate others about cognac, the history and culture that surrounds it. It’s people like Paul Ronne who help us make our dream come true with their passion and generosity in sharing their collections. Please take a minute (if you are a cognac fan, couple days) and visit Paul’s site which houses a collection of 15,000 plus cognac labels and more.

would like to know how long it took for the collector to gather all that much labels.. Was the cognac label collection hobby past down from many generations? A very interesting story.
