History

« Arrive neither by strength, nor by gold, but by your courage, your sincerity, and your merit »

1802

Baron de Beauchesne is the eldest of a family whose origins go back to the Capetians with Bouchard III, Seigneur de Montmorency (991-1040). They were squires to the King, knights, lords, counts, viscounts, and barons.

It was during this period that the de Beauchesne family distinguished itself.
In 1802, Napoleon Bonaparte acquired two pavilions and a hunting park not far from Saint-Cloud. He appointed Baron d’Hanneucourt, a renowned hunter and friend of Baron de Beauchesne, to head his hunting team.

During a hunt, Baron de Beauchesne offered Napoleon Bonaparte and his General Staff, through Baron d’Hanneucourt, his finest Cognacs.
After becoming Emperor in 1804, Napoleon Bonaparte remained a discerning connoisseur, as barrels of Cognac accompanied him to St. Helena.

2004

In 1976, Olivier de Beauchesne, discovering a few bottles and elements of his family’s ancestral blends, set out on a quest to reproduce these exceptional Cognacs identically.

In 2004, at his request, Philippe Ciofolo continued the search for a renaissance of these cognacs with the same respect for tradition and excellence that had made the de Beauchesne family famous in the 11th century. Indeed, against a backdrop of confrontation, honor and loyalty they fully identified with the philosophy of their coat of arms.

Before presenting our exceptional products, we feel it necessary to explain the characteristics of a product as noble as Cognac.

Cognac Terroir

Stemming from quality vineyards, transported by boat to the countries of Northern Europe, the wines of Poitou, Charente and the Angoulême region have delighted the English, Dutch and Scandinavians since the 13th century.

From the 17th century onwards, they were transformed into eaux-de-vie, then refined in oak barrels to become Cognac. Thus began the adventure of the town of Cognac, which was to become the capital of a world-renowned trade.
