Cognac Jean Luc Pasquet - Family Treasures - Arlette's Cognac - L.70 - Petite Champagne - 44.6%
The Pasquet Cognac House is located at Chez Ferchaud-Eraville, in Bellevigne in Charente . In 1970, Jean-Luc Pasquet inherited from his uncle Albert and became responsible for the family business comprising 8 hectares of vines in Grande and Petite Champagne. The estate expanded to 14 hectares, cultivated since 1995 using certified organic farming . The 20 hectolitre still produces fine and rich eaux-de-vie from a double distillation which are then aged for a minimum of 4 years, or 2 more years of legal aging in wood to obtain the name "Cognac". The House is now operated by Jean Pasquet and his wife Amy, who is originally from the United States.
The Trésors de Famille collection was created in 2018, following a shortage of old cognacs. The Pasquet family then called on distillers who had "hidden treasures" in their cellars. A single barrel is selected from each of these enthusiasts and finishes its aging in the cellars of Maison Pasquet. Each bottle bears the producer's first name, and comes from a limited and numbered series. Cognac d'Arlette comes from the Petite Champagne cru, and 366 bottles were produced for this Lot 70 .
