Around 1850, a Mr. Goulard was a weaver. He lived and worked among the vineyards of Cognac. However after a time, he built a distillery and with the good advice of his cousin, a worker in the Hennessy distillery, he produced the famous alcohol with a prestigious name: Cognac.

Time went by, with its good and bad years (wars, vineyard troubles - phylloxera and mildew).

Then in 1921, the vineyard took the name of PETIT after a family marriage to an Albert Petit.

In 1965, André Petit, son of Albert, decided to stop his contract with the house of Hennessy to sell his own bottled product and the House of Andre Petit & Fils was born.

Petit Cognac is elaborated following very old methods.  Grapes are harvested by hand and distilled following the teachings of generations. In the distillation, no machines are used to separate alcohol.  Petit are wine growers who develop a Cognac with a pronounced style following feelings and tastes. 

Andre Petit Cognac is not a standard quality Cognac.
