For more than 160 years, the Barbancourt distillery has been passing on its unique know-how, inherited from its founder Dupré Barbancourt, from generation to generation to refined the Barbancourt style.
In the 1950s, Jean Gardère gave a new dimension to the estate through industrialization while his son, Thierry Gardère, increased production capacity. His granddaughter Delphine Gardère, current guardian, has inspired a more modern and international dimension to the distillery and to the brand.
