Distillery Information

Founded in 1759, Delamain is unlike any other cognac producer in France. Having long made the decision to specialize in producing only the finest well-aged expressions, they have forgone both the VS and VSOP grades of cognac and opted to make their XO expression their entry-level offering and backing it with a world-class quality to match. This, in turn, made them a favorite of many discerning cognac drinkers who were quickly enamored by their expressions’ exquisite taste born out of a passion for the pursuit of nothing else but pure perfection.
