Augier

The House of Augier is a historic cognac house, renowned for its long tradition and the quality of its eaux-de-vie. Founded in the early 18th century, Augier is one of the oldest cognac houses still in operation. Established in 1643 by Pierre-Augustin Augier, it remains one of the longest-standing cognac houses. The company is currently run by the Augier family, who continue to uphold the tradition and craftsmanship of cognac through the centuries. The history of the House of Augier is marked by its commitment to quality and innovation while respecting the age-old traditions of cognac production. Augier cognacs are crafted from specific grape varieties, primarily Ugni Blanc, which is particularly suited for cognac production due to its acidity and character. Distillation is carried out in traditional Charentais stills, and the eaux-de-vie are aged in oak casks, allowing for the development of complex and nuanced flavors.
