A Pioneering French Whisky from the Cognac Region

Alfred Giraud: the excellence of French whisky

Founded in 2012 by Philippe Giraud, the fifth generation of a family of cellarmasters serving Rémy Martin since 1910, Alfred Giraud embodies the excellence of French whisky. Located in Charente, the House harnesses a century-old Cognac expertise applied to whisky. Owned by the Giraud family in partnership with SVE, it stands out for its full control of the chain, from André Giraud's Limousin cooperage to sophisticated blends. This unique synthesis of Cognac tradition and constant innovation positions Alfred Giraud as a benchmark in premium French whisky.

Voyage: First Whisky in the Exploration Range

"Le Voyage" brilliantly inaugurates the Exploration range of Alfred Giraud. This bold blend marries two high-quality French single malts, aged respectively in Sauternes casks and French robinia wood casks. The Sauternes casks impart their characteristic notes of crème anglaise, sweet grape and acacia honey, while the robinia wood enriches the ensemble with delicate white floral notes. This innovative approach perfectly illustrates the adventurous spirit of Maison Alfred Giraud and its desire to showcase the French whisky through original aging methods.
