Itinerary
Ideally located in Jarnac on the banks of the Charente, the TIFFON establishments invite you to discover its exceptional heritage within an emblematic building. Founded in 1875, explore the authenticity of an independent family house whose production secrets have been passed down for 6 generations. The House is run by the Braastad family and runs the estate in a traditional way by being an actor from the vine to the glass. Immerse yourself in the secrets of cognac manufacturing through the different stages of production: history, know-how, distillation. This dive into the heart of cognac will take you to our cellars and introduce you to the art of aging and blending. Finally, after a visit to our cabinet of curiosities, the experience ends with the tasting. We present our iconic cognacs from the 3 reference categories: VS, VSOP, XO to better understand the different facets of cognac. *Tasting reserved for adults.

About Cognac
Cognac is a quiet town on the Charente River in south-west France, home of the brandy that bears its name, with ageing cellars and a medieval old centre.
Cognac stands on the Charente, in the heart of the vineyards of the Charente département. The town gave its name to the brandy distilled from white wine in copper pot stills and aged in French oak, and merchant houses line the river with long cellars. Their walls are stained black by a fungus that feeds on the spirit evaporating from the barrels, the so-called angels' share. Francis I, king of France, was born in the town's château in 1494.
