For almost 250 years, the quality of Hine cognacs, refined through six generations, has been recognised all over the world.

These fine cognacs reflect the dedicated skill of the House of Hine.

Thomas Hine was an adventurous Englishman who went to France to seek his fortune. He married a French girl and worked in her father’s cognac business. Following his determination to seek out and use only the finest 'crus', raising cognac qualities to new heights, he took over the company in 1821 and renamed it after himself.

Six generations have grown up in the business, which is headquartered in the family House in Jarnac, France.

Hine sells only VSOP quality and above in full respect of the family tradition for more than 250 years. Hine’s cognacs are aged longer than the legal constraints and are only aged in Limousine oak barrels.

Hine’s cognac quality has been awarded with 17 medals since 1999 and with the Royal Warrant. Hine is recognised worldwide as the expert in vintages – this means that the vintage is made from eau-de-vie from a single year. Strict customs supervision and the double key system guarantee the vintage appellation.

Hine vintages are only Grand Champagne cognacs.
