Bottles The story of Hardy Legend 1863
Legends often begin with love stories. The Legend 1863 bottle tells the story of Anthony Hardy, an English gentleman whose passion for cognac and its region led him to become French at heart — and later, by nationality. Created as a tribute to this visionary entrepreneur, Legend 1863 cognac embodies a bold strength of character, echoing the French Rooster, emblem of his adopted country. The bottle was redesigned in 2023 to celebrate the 160th anniversary of Maison Hardy.
Fun fact !
First released in 2017 to celebrate the Year of the Rooster in China, the bottle’s distinctive and instantly recognizable shape — with two fins on each side — was designed to mirror the rooster’s comb. The gift box echoed this inspiration, featuring a feather-like pattern reminiscent of the rooster’s plumage.
