A wonderful, approachable, award-winning example of Hardy’s Cognac heritage and expertise.

Back in the mid 1800s, Anthony Hardy — an Englishman — fell in love with northern France and Cognac. After decades of flirting with the region as an importer of Cognac into England, he eventually moved there, changed his name from Anthony to Antoine, and opened up his own Cognac distillation house (a “Maison”). Hey… follow your passions, right? Today, Maison Hardy produces a few lovely Pineaus and a wide range of Cognacs from the middle price points all the way up to some truly fantastic artistic expressions arrayed in fine crystal decanters.

Hardy Legend 1863 is named for the year in which the Hardy Distillery was founded. It’s a lovely blend of Hardy Cognacs made from 100% Ugni Blanc grapes raised in limestone soils within three of the seven producing districts — Petits Champaign, Fins Bois, and Borderies. The Spirit is aged in lightly-toasted Limousin oak barrels from two to twelve years. It is a wonderful, approachable, award-winning example of Hardy’s expertise and we would have a dram whenever there is a bottle open to pour.

I’ve been into Scotch and bourbon for a while. I’m just starting to explore cognac and brandy. In France they often serve a congnac in between courses to “burn a whole” in your stomach to make room. In that spirit I bought a bottle of this for our Christmas dinner. I consider myself fortunate to have picked this one. The aroma is amazing; think caramel apple, latte, tart tatin. The mouth feel is equally stunning smooth and velvety on the tongue. Many layers of flavors and taste. Take a long whiff, followed by a small sip, and swirl it around your mouth to coat your tongue, swallow, and enjoy!

Outstanding! So full of character and body but yet so subtle. Amazing

I’m somewhat new to cognacs. But I’ve had a handful on my journey and this one is my favorite so far.

Love Hardy. Nice blended cognac, with notes of sweet vanilla finish with hints of caramel and smooth finish. Very complimentary to a good cigar….. your welcome.
