At Distillerie de Saint-Martin, the complexity and character of our eaux-de-vie are the direct result of technical expertise, demanding methods, and many years of experience at the still.
Distillerie de Saint-Martin
In the heart of Cognac since 1882
UNCOMPROMISING
expertise and precision
In the heart of Cognac, on avenue de Royan, stands the Distillerie de Saint-Martin.
Designed first
and foremost
as a working distillery
since 1882
A site entirely dedicated to precision, mastery, and the preservation of exceptional craftsmanship. From the careful selection of wines to the meticulous, bespoke oversight of every distillation, each step is guided by uncompromising standards.
Today, this expertise finds its fullest expression in the creation of our own, first-ever Cognac, VERTU XO.
Officially registered as a distilling house in Cognac in 1882, Distillerie de Saint-Martin carries forward the enduring legacy of the region’s savoir-faire.
Located in Cognac’s Saint-Martin district, Distillerie de Saint-Martin is one of the few distilleries still operating in the heart of the city. Its buildings combine the understated, robust character of traditional Charentais architecture with the functional forms shaped by the demands of distillation.
An architecture defined by its purpose, yet deeply connected to Cognac’s visual identity — a reminder that, here, the making of Cognac has always been an integral part of the very fabric of the city.
More than simply a distillery, Saint-Martin embodies authenticity and continuity, preserving the traditions that have shaped Cognac while remaining firmly rooted in the realities of modern production.
Today, Distillerie de Saint-Martin stands as a living symbol of Cognac’s heritage: a place where generations of expertise, the character of the Charente terroir, and the exacting art of distillation come together.
