The history of the house – tradition since 1680

The history of Lhéraud Cognac can be traced back to 1680, when Alexandre Lhéraud began cultivating the land in Lasdoux near Cognac in Charente. Over the generations, the family has preserved their craftsmanship and traditions, and today the house is synonymous with quality and authenticity.

Lhéraud is known for their uncompromising approach: long aging, natural colors and respect for classic methods. The legendary 1966 vintage is a beautiful example of the house’s ability to create cognacs that both pay homage to the past and deliver a timeless taste experience.
