The esteemed Cognac maison of Baron Otard has a far reaching and fascinating story to tell, and all in the setting of the Chateau de Cognac. Named after the Baron Jean-Baptiste Otard who was born in 1763, the house is one of the finest in the region. The chateau was built originally to defend against invasions from the English and the Vikings in France at the end of the 11th century, and then it was rebuilt to house the Valois family in the 15th century. Francois I, the future King of France (also known as Francois Valois) was born in this very chateau in 1494. It was founded as a maison de Cognac in 1795 by Baron Otard. He believed it to be an optimal environment in which to age Cognac, due to the thick walls and numerous rooms. After being exiled from France, Otard returned to the town of Cognac to begin the art form of blending eaux-de-vie.

With an ancient tradition tracing back to the Middle Ages, and to the great Norwegian Viking Ottar, this Cognac dynasty has an incredibly unique history. Around the same period, the iconic Chateau de Cognac was built on the banks of the Charente, and was largely associated with the French monarchy. Eventually, the two histories would merge with the arrival of the Cognac Maison Otard, founded in 1795. Today, the Chateau is the home of Baron Otard Cognac, who are amongst the most recognized in quality. The elegant teardrop bottles are a beautiful symbol for the simultaneously traditional and modern values of Cognac Otard.
