Bache-Gabrielsen

DISTILLERY OVERVIEW Cognac Bache-Gabrielsen, originally founded in 1905 by Thomas Bache-Gabrielsen from Norway, is a family-run business that is now in its 4th generation. Several generations later the business is still owned and run by the family. Today, Bache-Gabrielsen is one of the few remaining traditional, family-run cognac houses, and it continues to occupy premises in the center of Cognac. Combining a rich family and architectural history, the company is rapidly modernizing, as it is now being run by Thomas’ great-grandson Hervé, who recently took over the day-to-day management from his father. DISTILLING PHILOSOPHY Bache-Gabrielsen collaborates with a variety of Cognac growers in the region. This is an interesting approach, as it allows them to source a variety of different vintages from the different growing areas. It also means they are not solely tied to the yearly harvest from their own vineyards, but instead can vary the blends by sourcing from different producers. This is a dream for any master blender, and it comes to show in the large variety of Bache-Gabrielsen’s diverse range.
