Our story
The cask
Cognac from Bache-Gabrielsen is not stored in any old oak barrels. Must be French Oak ‘Limousin’ - only the best is good enough. This French Oak acts very simply as a patchwork of spices for cognac.

Particular attention to distillation, to the choice of oak wood and the humidity of the cellars, are all examples of the savoir-faire that is necessary throughout the long process of creating the final blend.
