Sometimes the difference does count.
 
Louis Royer was more than just a skilled cellar master. And it didn’t take him long to realize he would be much better off running his own business, rather than working for other Cognac houses. The year was 1853, when Louis set up the house of Cognac in the town of Jarnac, which overlooks the Charente River. Working with all 6 of the appellation areas, the rise of his empire was bound to happen using the skills he acquired as a cellar master. Today the fifth generation of the family runs the business and it remains just as Louis had imagined it; bringing different appellations to people from everywhere and showing them a different kind of Cognac.
 
This particular Cognac comes from the distillery Chantal and represents the Bons Bois area. The soil of Bons Bois cru is not rich in limestone, and has its vines dispersed throughout the area, sometimes even mixed with other crops.
 
Louis Royer Distillerie Chantal Bons Bois Cognac comes from the Western part of Bons Bois cru and its vineyards benefit from a very gentle climate making this Cognac not a weaker, but a more diverse opponent. And it’s all about diversity, sometimes.

Lately, Louis Royer started branching out a bit and they are now producing a range of Pineau des Charentes, Brandy, Liqueurs, and even Vodka. Their premium Vodka is made from wheat grown in Ile de France region and sells under their L'Ecrin Brand.
The wine used for Cognac is very dry, acidic, and thin but excellent for distillation and aging.
Believe it or not, the French aren’t all that fond of Cognac. In fact, they export nearly 90% of their production.
There are three primary grades of Cognac recognized by law: V.S., V.S.O.P., and X.O, but we also know Napoléon, XXO, and Hors d'âge.
Laws concerning Cognac-making are strict as hell. Only three types of grapes may be used, and they can only be harvested in October; Cognac must be aged for at least two years in barrels made from French oak - and get this, from one of two specific forests! Then, the stills must be of a particular French shape (no, not the baguette shape); and we guess La Marseillaise has to be sung during the entire process.
Nine liters of white Wine must be distilled for a single liter of Cognac!
