Substance over style.
 
Maison Surrenne is a collaboration between the wizards at Craft Distillers and the largest remaining family-owned Cognac house in France. Craft Distillers works closely with a tight-knit group of industry veterans to mix and marry the products that they produce in their Distillerie Gatauld with other bits and pieces. To say that they have a long history of building successful products and brands is an understatement.
 
Consisting of four distilleries and eight cellars, the Cognacs produced under the Maison Surrene line are either single cask, single district or from a single vineyard, which means there's something available for everybody. The Maison Surrene Cognac VSOP represents the sweet spot in the middle of their varied range, and it's a good indication of their overall quality, yes sir.
 
The objective is to form an authentic brand that provides quality Cognacs at an affordable price. They are succeeding, especially if the expression at hand is any indication. It contains the best grapes grown on the producer's own vineyards, minimally blended, double distilled in small alembic stills and aged in oak casks. Smooth and complex - everything you want in a fine Cognac.
 
Cognac's greatest enemy in the last couple of years has been its reputation as the vanity liquor of the rich and famous, more concerned about the form and the price than the substance of the Spirit. Maison Surenne doesn't entertain the usual profit-making practices. No extravagant labeling, no additives, no flavoring. Authentic and excellent, just what we love.

Cognac is a form of distilled Brandy. For a spirit to be labeled Cognac, it must be made from specified grapes, of which Ugni Blanc is the one most widely used. It must be twice distilled in copper pot stills and aged at least two years in French oak barrels from Limousin or Tronçais.
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!
Cognac, named after the town of Cognac in France, is a variety of brandy (distilled wine). It is only produced in the wine-growing region surrounding this town. Cognac must be made from specified grapes, be twice distilled in copper pot stills, and be aged at least two years in French oak barrels. Most Cognacs are aged considerably longer than the minimum legal requirement.
The wine used for Cognac is very dry, acidic, and thin but excellent for distillation and aging.
There are three different qualities of Cognac recognized by law: V.S. (very special), V.S.O.P. (Very Superior Old Pale), and X.O. (Extra Old).
