Grosperrin, one of the last independent Cognac houses, was founded by Jean Grosperrin in 1992, the same year as Stage Left and not a great time for selling Cognac. As a broker, Jean Grosperrin had developed an elaborate network of growers, who opened their cellar doors for him, and allowed him to buy some of their most precious stocks. The company philosophy has always been to maintain individual grower batches, leaving them in their original barrels or glass demi-johns, producing a wide array of distinctive Spirits from all of the appellations of Cognac. Their bottlings are, not only from single producers, but also from single barrels.
The result is an unparalleled selection of single vintage, single barrel, and single estate Cognacs, each with a unique personality and history. Today, the family-owned company is exclusively dedicated to the selection, aging and distribution of rare, aged Cognac dating from 1991 all the way back to World War II, carrying all of the necessary guarantees of quality and authenticity.
This single cask of Cognac was distilled on a small farm in the Fin Bois region of Cognac. It was aged in the ORECO government controlled cellars (an absolute guarantee of pedigree and vintage). The barrel was acquired by Grosperrin in 2009 and was bottled five years later. The bottles are numbered and we will open bottle number 00002. I cannot wait to taste it with you.
We will open one bottle at 6:30 precisely. When it's gone, it's gone.
