At Maison Ferrand, part of our craft comes down to very hands-on work: moving, lifting and positioning casks, sometimes in spaces where every movement counts.

Before the first sip, our Citadelle gin already has plenty to say through its bottle and label. Every detail reflects a place, a craft and a way of working: France, the Atlantic, the plants, and the people who grow and transform them.
In our Planteray cellars, some casks take a different path. After their double maturation, our Single Cask rums keep aging in wine, beer or spirits casks. The collection changes every year, shaped by the people we meet and the ideas we trade.
For decades it stayed in the shadows of our cellars, reserved for blenders who knew how to handle it. With Hogo Monsta, we're bottling a style of rum we've never released before. The first run sold out fast, so we're keeping it going.
Six terroirs. Seven names. Decades of knowledge and friendships. Together, they tell the story of rum through those who shaped it.
Ten bartenders, a panel of expert judges and three days at the heart of Citadelle Gin. For its very first edition, Citadelle Guardians brought a new generation of talent to Bonbonnet around three core values: knowledge, creativity and community!
Planteray XO was never meant to exist. It began as a secret, created by Alexandre Gabriel’s team as a gift.
Long a fixture of family tables in the Charente, Pineau des Charentes is enjoying new momentum. Crisp, lively, and easy to serve as an aperitif or in a cocktail; it's reclaiming its place. At Maison Ferrand, this tradition never left the cellars or the table.
From the archives of Flanders to the copper stills of Charente, from Ferran Adrià's tables to the New York press, discover how Alexandre Gabriel revived a gin of flavor and method, and why he named it Citadelle, a pioneer of the global gin revival.
