Landy
Cognac Landy
Cognac Landy is part of the larger company Cognac Ferrand. This relatively new house, established in 1989, was a collaboration between Alexandre Gabriel and a traditional wine-growing family in the Charente. Hence, Cognac Ferrand, and therefore Cognac Landy too, was created with the philosophy of bringing new life back into the industry and production of cognac. Because of this, the output of Cognac Landy is in the age-old fashion without utilizing mass production techniques.
History
The creation of Cognac Landy is with the same philosophy as all of Ferrand’s brands. And this means that the cognac must be an expression of the land and that the best grapes must be selected and slowly distilled over time. With that in mind, Cognac Landy is now well known in over 40 countries of the world and famous for being produced in the time-honored method of the Charente.
the Greyhound
The symbol of Cognac Landy is the greyhound, a dog known as being a companion to the French aristocracy over the centuries. King Francois I – himself born in Cognac – was known to be a particular fan of greyhounds. They choose the dog as the symbol of Landy due to its excellence and elegance – two attributes assigned to Cognac Landy itself.
Snoop Dogg
Today Landy Cognac, although staying faithful to the production methods of old, is using 21st-century cutting-edge technology to advertise and brand its product. With a high profile Facebook and Twitter presence, Cognac Landy has also embraced the world of rap music by having one of the music genre’s top artists endorse the brand: none less than Snoop Dogg.
