A dangerously drinkable classic.

The story of Godet Cognacs is really, really long. We’ll try not to bore you too much wih every detail possible as you can imagine a thing or two has happened in the 4 centuries (add or take a couple of decades) since the story started in 1588. It was then that a Dutch merchant Bonaventure Godet founded a salt and Wine business in the harbour of La Rochelle on the western coast of France. Godet was one of the first traders of the “Dutch burnt wine” — the name under which Cognac was known back in the day. Over the years, the craft and taste have been refined, but Godet Freres Cognac remains 100% family-owned today when it is run by the 15th generation of Godet family.

The youngest in the prestigious Godet range, Godet VS Classic is a direct descendant of the original “burnt Wine” that Bonaventure Godet shipped on his galleon. It’s a blend of two crus: Fins Bois and Bons Bois. Double-distilled in a copper still, it’s then aged for 3 years in oak. Lively and fruity, this classic Cognac is round with a smooth finish; or in other words, dangerously drinkable.
