The Distillates Tasting #18 - Maison Lheraud

The Distillates Tasting #18:  A weekday with Maison Lheraud featuring Mr Lheraud

There are but a few independently owned brands in Cognac who, in my experience, command and deserve such a price point as Maison Lheraud. The family has been nurturing spirits since 1860 and continues to distill Cognac, Armagnac and Pineau des Charentes as the generations before. As you can imagine, their cellars contain treasures. I’ve wanted to sit and have a fireside chat with Mr Lheraud ever since I asked a few people at festivals who is their favorite story teller from the region. This will be a good time. We’ve selected two old and rare vintages from each type of spirit they produce.

This won’t be our typical tasting. It will be on a Monday night (french time) to accommodate Mr Lehraud. And while it will have amazing value, as Clément has done us a gift on pricing, it’s got a big old sticker. For those who don’t know, I don’t make any money on these at all. All funds go directly to the domaine and to cover cost of distribution. If you have never tried a Lheraud cognac, just know that I have given more 8s and 9s than any other rating to every pour that graced my glass.
