✨ Technical Specifications
H by Hine is a contemporary and vibrant expression from the illustrious house of Hine, designed to showcase a more whimsical and adventurous side of Fine Champagne Cognac. Established in Jarnac along the banks of the Charente River, Hine has long been synonymous with precision and elegance. This VSOP is a masterfully crafted blend of more than fifteen eaux-de-vie sourced exclusively from the premier crus of Grande and Petite Champagne, with the youngest components aged for at least four years in French oak. The result is a wonderfully expressive spirit that breaks traditional Cognac conventions, offering a lively bouquet of white flowers, fresh apricot, and yellow fruits. It serves as a bridge between Hine's historic craftsmanship and modern mixology, capturing the expressive terroir of the region in a style that is both approachable and deeply sophisticated.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1763 along the banks of the Charente River in Jarnac, Thomas Hine & Co. represents one of Cognac's most distinguished artisanal houses, underscored by being the sole cognac house to hold a British Royal Warrant since 1962. Hine centers its philosophy on the premier crus of Grande and Petite Champagne, farming 115 hectares across the chalk-dominant, undulating hillsides of Bonneuil under certified sustainable practices (HVE and CEC). Under long-standing Cellar Master Eric Forget, the house champions the belief that monumental cognac begins as pristine white wine. Vinified exclusively from Ugni Blanc, the wines undergo double distillation on fine lees in traditional Charentais copper pot stills, followed by aging in lightly toasted, fine-grained French oak casks to preserve floral vivacity and mineral nuance. Renowned for its single-estate and single-vintage bottlings, Hine is celebrated globally for benchmarks such as Antique XO Premier Cru, Homage Grand Cru, and its legendary Early Landed vintages matured in humid British cellars.
