LOUIS XIII, THE KING OF COGNAC, IN HONOR OF HIS MAJESTY THE KING CHARLES III

Strong ancient bonds, both historical and cultural, have always linked LOUIS XIII Cognac to the Court of England.


LOUIS XIII Cognac was served in 1938 at a banquet honouring King George VI and Queen Elizabeth in the Hall of Mirrors in Versailles, marking a first historic step for the House. And then again in 1957, on the occasion of the first official visit of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip to France, also received with the highest honors at Versailles.

At LOUIS XIII, Time is our raw material, and every drop of LOUIS XIII is a living legacy. As a tribute to the crowning of His Majesty the King Charles III, the Maison LOUIS XIII has specially engraved a one-of-a-kind decanter on the occasion of His first State visit to France.


“LOUIS XIII Cognac is honoured to contribute to the French prestige and its renowned savoir-faire, by taking part once again in a historical moment between France and the Crown of England at Versailles.” states Anne-Laure Pressat, LOUIS XIII Executive Director.


LOUIS XIII is an invitation to dive into an infinite voyage, celebrating visionary minds that shape the future by seizing each present moment.

ABOUT LOUIS XIII


Since 1874, LOUIS XIII Cognac is forever reborn from the precious eaux-de-vie of Cognac Grande Champagne, handed down through generations and artfully blended. Time is the raw material with which this rare spirit is crafted, its essence unwavering.


Guided by Cellar Master Baptiste Loiseau, LOUIS XIII is the symbol of an enduring bond with Nature and Terroir, strengthened by the patina of age. Each drop is a living legacy, each decanter a celebration of visionary minds and human hands that shape the future by making a mark on tomorrow, today.


Think a century ahead.
