Made from pure Ugni Blanc and distilled on its lees, Pierre Ferrand 10 Générations Cognac combines aging in French oak barrels with approximately 20% Sauternes casks, without any use of new oak. The warm, delicate nose reveals aromas of gingerbread, caramel, and coconut, intertwined with fruity notes of apricot, muscat, and pear. These evolve into more woody and peppery tones, complemented by floral hints and touches of pineapple. On the palate, these nuances expand, delivering a rich, silky texture with remarkable elegance. The finish is long, fresh, and marked by a subtle menthol lift—a truly refined Cognac experience.

Founded in 1610, Maison Ferrand is one of the oldest cognac houses, based exclusively in the heart of Grande Champagne, the premier cru of the region.
Still independently owned, it has been revitalized under the leadership of Alexandre Gabriel, who is committed to preserving its distinctive style, deeply rooted in the chalky Grand Cru terroir.
