Godet Freres
Godet Frères – this is cognac with a history dating back to 1588. For 15 generations, the Godet family has stood on the Atlantic coast of western France, distilling spirits that embody the spirit of this rugged, salty landscape.
Jean-Édouard, Maxime, and Cyril Godet run the house today with the same high standards as their ancestors – but with a fresh, forward-looking perspective. Whether classic Grands Crus, prestigious Super Blends, or cognacs that prove themselves as cocktail bases: at Godet, everyone gets their dram.
Godet Frères –
Cognac with Atlantic salt since the 16th century
Godet Frères is one of the oldest cognac distilleries in the world – founded in 1588 and run by the 15th generation. The house is not located in the heart of Grande Champagne, but on the Atlantic coast of western France , where sea air, chalk soils, and the harsh climate of the Charente-Maritime give the brandies a unique character: somewhat saltier, somewhat wilder than the classic cognacs from the interior.
Jean-Édouard, Maxime, and Cyril Godet now run the family business with a clear focus on quality and style. Their range extends from mature Grands Crus aged in long casks to complex Super Blends and younger cognacs suitable as a base for sophisticated cocktails – all without compromising on traditional craftsmanship.
At Godet, cognac isn't a museum piece. The family distills, ages, and blends using the same craftsmanship as for centuries – but without shying away from new drinking occasions. Those who have only known cognac as a digestif will find a different introduction here.
