Hine
In Jarnac on the Charente, Hine—founded in 1763—builds nobility through precision. The name recalls Thomas Hine, the Englishman who anchored a clear stylistic idea here: finely drawn eaux‑de‑vie from selected crus, distilled in the alambic charentais with disciplined cuts, then refined by oak until line and texture feel inevitable.
In the cellars, details matter: cask quality, controlled aeration and long periods of rest add definition without heaviness. The maître de chai works like a writer using quiet ink—patient, exacting, and devoted to harmony.
Hine thus represents Cognac with British restraint and French grandeur: a house style that doesn’t need to announce itself, because balance and classical elegance do the speaking.
Its association with a rare British Royal Warrant suits the character perfectly: restrained, exacting, and quietly luxurious.Hine
