Hine is a cognac house based in Jarnac, in the heart of France's Cognac region. The house focuses exclusively on producing cognac from the Grande Champagne appellation, which is considered the premier cru of the Cognac region due to its chalky soils and optimal conditions for growing Ugni Blanc grapes.

Grande Champagne cognacs are distinguished by their exceptional aging potential and refined character. The chalky limestone soils in this appellation produce eaux-de-vie with remarkable finesse and longevity, developing complex floral and fruity notes over extended maturation periods. Cognacs from this region typically require longer aging to reach their full potential compared to those from other Cognac appellations.

The house's current offering includes an XO expression designated as 1er Cru, reflecting Grande Champagne's status as the first growth of Cognac. XO cognacs must be aged for a minimum of ten years, though many exceed this requirement significantly, developing the deep complexity and smoothness characteristic of well-aged Grande Champagne spirits.
