Founded in 1824, Delamain is one of the oldest and most respected Cognac houses, remaining proudly independent and family-run for nearly 200 years. Unlike many producers, Delamain focuses exclusively on XO and older Cognacs, refusing to produce VS or VSOP expressions in order to prioritise depth, maturity, and refinement.
The house works solely with eaux-de-vie from Grande Champagne, the premier cru of Cognac, renowned for producing spirits with exceptional ageing potential. Delamain’s philosophy is built around patience - Cognacs are matured slowly in older oak casks to preserve finesse rather than overpower the spirit with wood.
This unwavering commitment to tradition and time has made Delamain a favourite among collectors, sommeliers, and Cognac connoisseurs worldwide.
