Ferrand 10 Générations is a cognac produced entirely from the ugni blanc grape grown in the premier cru of Grand Champagne. It was created by Alexandre Gabriel, founder of Maison Ferrand. The cognac was distilled on the lees (using unfiltered wine) to provide a complexity. It matured in French oak barrels, 20% of which were ex-Sauternes casks in a humid cellar. The name 10 Générations is a tribute to the 10 generations of the Ferrand family that have passed down their knowledge of viticulture and distillation through the generations. Mademoiselle Henriette, the last descendant of the main branch of the Ferrands, was the guardian of the family history and she entrusted these memories to Gabriel.
