A Legacy
Reawakened

In 1832, Antoine Hivert and Victoire Pellevoisin united their names and vision. Six years later, they gave birth to a house — HIVERT PELLEVOISIN — whose initials, HP, would come to embody refinement, heritage, and quiet distinction.

Fate, ever loyal to greatness, intervened once more. In 1858, Auguste Godet married into the lineage, inheriting not only the house, but its spirit. Under his stewardship, HP flourished — its eaux-de-vie maturing gracefully through generations, its reputation echoing far beyond its cellars.

"It all started with love."

By 1960, production ceased. The house faded into legend — whispered, remembered, but unseen. At the dawn of the 21st century, two lineages converged once more: the 6th generation of the HP family and the 15th generation of the Godet family — to awaken what time could not erase.

Celebrating 150 years

Each cuvée is not assembled.
It is composed.

Faithful to the noblest traditions of cognac, each expression is crafted through the art of blending — where rare eaux-de-vie, patiently aged, are brought together to create depth, tension, and life.

I
Rare Eaux-de-vie
Selected from exceptional vintages, each eau-de-vie brings its singular character — floral, spiced, or deeply tannic — to the final composition.
II
Patient Ageing
Time is the master blender. HP's eaux-de-vie are aged slowly in French oak, where the Charente climate works its quiet alchemy across the seasons.
III
The Art of Composition
The final blend is an act of precision and instinct — depth, tension, and life brought into harmony. The signature of two families, across two centuries.

Each expression is a composition — rare eaux-de-vie patiently aged, then brought together with precision and instinct. The signature of two families, across two centuries.
