Courvoisier (French pronunciation: [kuʁvwazje]) is a brand of cognac, with production based in the town of Jarnac in the Charente region of France. It is the youngest and smallest of the "big four" cognac houses (the others are Hennessy, Rémy Martin, and Martell).[1]
Courvoisier has also been described as the most untypical of the big four.[2] It controls every step of its production process but does no distilling of its own, changes the process for different vintages and regional variations in eaux-de-vie, and has never owned vines. In 2019, it exported approximately 1.4 million nine-litre cases of its cognacs.[3]
The brand has been owned by several companies in recent years from Allied Domecq in the 1990's, Beam Global (later Beam Suntory) thereafter, and most recently Campari Group since May 2024.[4]
