Our Story
Created in 1830, the House is now run by the sixth generation of the family, legacy of Cognac distillation and blending. The current generation perpetuates a tradition of careful innovation and artful blending. The aging cellars and the distillery overlook the lazy Lary river: everything takes its time in Cognac. The wines are sourced both from the House owned vineyards and from grower partners. They come from various parts of the Appellation, including Petite Champagne, and must respect strict specifications (volatile acidity). NYAK is 80% proof.

“Simultaneously, the African-American community was making monumental breakthroughs in pop culture which sparked a major influence for the NYAK brand.
Many aspects of this shift in American culture can be attributed to the birth of the NYAK brand. and our vision”
