L’Esprit® de Courvoisier® Cognac
The distinguished House of Courvoisier began making brandies in the mid-18th century and soon became the favorite of Napoléon Bonaparte and his court. In 1869, Chateau Courvoisier was honored as the “Purveyor by Special Appointment to the Court of Napoléon III.” The brand’s ascendancy into preeminence reached a pinnacle with the creation of L’ESPRIT DE COURVOISIER COGNAC.

Made in the heart of Jarnac, France, L’Esprit de Courvoisier is arguably the finest, most exclusive brandy ever created. It is handcrafted from the finest brandies distilled in the premiere crus, or growing regions. The brandies are double-distilled in small copper alembic stills and cellared in handmade Limousin and Tronçais oak barrels.

L’Esprit de Courvoisier is comprised of brandies from the finest vintages in the past centuries, some exceeding 200 years in age. The youngest constituent brandy is from 1930, while the oldest is from the vintage of 1802.

L’Esprit is certainly the finest, most complex brandy to grace a snifter. Hand packaged in a stunning Lalique crystal decanter, the brandy has a wafting bouquet saturated with fruity aromas. The full, satiny textured brandy glides over the palate and slowly fades into a luxuriously flavorful finish. L’Esprit de Courvoisier is an extraordinary achievement, one worthy of a museum exhibition.
