Bache-Gabrielsen distillery is located in an old, almost antiquated premise in the
center of Cognac. Norwegian
Thomas Bache-Gabrielsen followed love to
France, and then decided to make
Cognac, founding the Cognac House of Bache-Gabrielsen in
1905.
Coming from a background in Spirits (his father was an executive at the
largest Alcohol producer in Norway), Thomas brought the natural Norwegian way, to French Cognac. Today,
Maison Bache-Gabrielsen is
one of the last remaining,
family-run Cognac houses in France, ran by
Hervé Bache-Gabrielsen, Thomas' great-grandson.
Despite being located in the antique housing, behind the facade lies a very modern Cognac distillery. According to them, as modern as a Cognac distillery can be.
