The history of the house

The history of Lhéraud goes back a long way. Alexandre Lhéraud began cultivating the land as early as 1680 in the town of Lasdoux in Charente, close to the Cognac area. Over the generations, the focus on quality and tradition has been refined and the house’s method is known to be deeply rooted in classic craftsmanship. Lhéraud often refers to cognac as “the water of life ” – and this philosophy is reflected in their vintage bottlings, where authenticity and patience define the experience.
