Tesseron Cognac

Tesseron Cognac is a renowned brand made from the two most prestigious appellations in the Cognac region: Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne, where the Maison’s 40 hectares of vines are located. Founded in 1905 by Abel Tesseron, the Maison has a long-term policy of building up stocks of eaux-de-vie that are carefully conserved in a twelfth-century crypt. Today, Noé Tesseron has contributed his skills to the family legacy, bringing a more modern vision and new impetus into the house and encouraging the creation of the most subtle and complex cognacs. The distillery of the Tesseron Cognac house has remained the central element of a historic property in which the family house merges with numerous old cellars. Tesseron cognacs undergo a double distillation known as a ‘repasse’ in Charente copper ‘pot’ stills, which are heated by a naked flame. Each stage of the distillation process is subject to a stringent tasting by the cellarmaster.
