\n
The Maison Grosperrin is an essential reference in the world of artisanal Cognac. Founded by Jean Grosperrin, who arrived in Cognac in 1991 after working various jobs such as agricultural worker, shepherd, and sheep shearer during the summer, this family house embodies passion and traditional know-how. In 1992, Jean became a country broker and traveled the region meeting small producers, tirelessly searching for the rarest and most authentic Cognac lots. In 1999, he took a new step by acquiring several casks of old Cognac, combined with his three stills, thus laying the foundations of the famous Grosperrin Cognacs. In 2004, his son Guilhem took over the company, building precious stocks and enriching the cellars through a rigorous selection of exceptional Cognacs. He also selects specific plots and establishes sustainable contracts with local winegrowers. In 2012, Guilhem developed an important international network by meeting foreign importers, attracting a growing community of enlightened enthusiasts and passionate collectors.
