Grönstedts Bottle Catalogue (Last updated: Nov 15, 2024)

90 regular bottles, still incomplete.

Grönstedts was founded in Sweden in 1846 by Johan Daniel Grönstedts, who started to imported cognac from France to store, age and blend it.
In 1917, the company was nationalised and in 1955 became part of the state-owned Systembolaget. In 2008, Grönstedts was sold to Pernod-Ricard and in 2009 to Finnish Altia.

The founder’s initials can still be seen on their logo (JDG).
