Poitou-Charentes

At Château de Bonbonnet, surrounded by a team of enthusiasts, Alexandre Ferrand has brought together creativity, quality expertise and local flavors to sublimate Gin in the land of Cognac.

After more than a quarter-century of expertise, from April 2024 the establishment will offer an immersion into the unique Citadelle Gin production process. From the subtle marriage of juniper berries and aromatic herbs to the tasting, the senses are awakened as we delve into the secrets of gin production in the impressive cathedral distillery.

Boris and Morgan are great whisky lovers and have gone so far as to create their own beverages, aged in pineau barrels. They distil in Boris' garage. While waiting for their first Whisky du Poitou - Single Malt, to be released ⁱⁿ September 2023, the two acolytes have launched a range of four gins: Fresh'In (lemongrass - ginger - hibiscus flowers), Origin (with 12 botanicals), Black Diamond (with Poitou black truffle), and the local bestseller: the Thorn. Discover also their spirit made from malt alcohol grown in Poitou-Charentes: Malt & Botanics, triple distilled. Possibility to visit by appointment.
