Only the Best
Our Cognac is sourced from the finest producers in the Cognac region in France. Our Grand Champagne blends come from the top region in Cognac known for producing Cognac enjoyed globally by collectors and aficionados alike.
“I am proud to have developed quality Cognac blends that are resonating with both established Cognac connoisseurs and new drinkers alike. As an aspirational lifestyle brand, it was important for me to deliver Cognac that can be enjoyed in nightlife, at restaurants, but even more importantly, at home with close friends and family. Right now, the completion of an at-home bar requires having one or more of our Cognacs present, and that means we did it right.”

Distilling & Blending
Branson embodies the history and knowledge with classic production techniques to produce artisanal Cognacs.
The methods used in the vineyards have one singular goal and focus – harvest the best quality and purest Ugni Blanc. Once all the grapes are hand-picked, the grapes are pressed and fermented in vats. The wine is then distilled on the lees that results in elegant and fragrant aromas.
Distillation is done in traditional pot stills some being many decades old. As the wine is heated, the alcohol evaporates and rises through the neck of the still and is then cooled to a liquid. This liquid is distilled again to purify it, which at that time becomes an Eaux-de-Vie.
Branson Cognacs are aged in French Oak barrels, sourced from Alliers, Limousin and Tronçais. With a mix of young and old barrels, Branson is able to give each Cognac their ideal golden brown color and allow the liquid to mature and evolve. The final step in the maturation is in the oldest oak barrels that allow the Cognac to evaporate, thus creating the angel’s share.
