China's Tariff Decision: China has exempted major cognac producers like Pernod Ricard, LVMH, and Remy Cointreau from hefty duties on EU brandy, while imposing tariffs of up to 34.9% on other EU brandy imports, as part of ongoing trade tensions with the EU over tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles.
Impact on Cognac Industry: The decision is seen as a relief for French cognac makers, who have faced a significant drop in exports to China due to previous tariffs, and it may lead to some price increases, although the overall situation remains challenging amid broader trade disputes.
