The Domaine de Poutëou, a family business located in the heart of Bas-Armagnac, offers vintage Armagnacs and Floc de Gascogne. For more than a century, the Tarbe family has perpetuated its know-how to produce authentic Armagnacs with character.

Manoir de Montreuil is a collaboration between legendary importer Charles Neal and veteran calvados producer Patrice Giard. The project uses apples from Giard’s beautiful, cow-filled orchards in the Pays d’Auge which are distilled twice using a traditional Alembic still. Older varieties of apples are favoured because of their complexity despite the fact that they don’t produce as much juice -- it’s truly a labour of love.

The Ferrand family can trace its history as makers of Cognac in Segonzac, in the heart of the Grande Champagne area of Cognac, all the way back to 1702. In the 1970s, Pierre Ferrand created his own trademark and launched his label Cognac. Today, Pierre’s family is one of the few Cognac houses that specialised in old Cognacs. The Ferrand family are known as a traditional family of bouilleur de cru, which is a Cognac maker who distils only the juice of its own vineyard.
