Stories from the vineyard to the bottle.
In Cognac, 2024 was marked by VERY unpredictable weather. Grapes, the raw material for cognac, are particularly sensitive to humidity and other environmental factors. Fortunately, the Ferrand team showed remarkable resilience to still make the harvest as fruitful as ever!
The recent decision by the Jamaica Intellectual Property Office (JIPO) to radically modify the geographical indication of Jamaican rum raises crucial questions about preserving the traditions and expertise that have shaped the global reputation of this iconic spirit.
Knowledge sharing among teams is at the heart of our DNA at Maison Ferrand. These exchanges between worlds of excellence always offer us exceptional moments. This is illustrated by Fannie, Research and Creation Manager in Cognac, and Dario from Stade's West Indies Rum Distillery in Barbados.
From October 14th to 16th, Maison Ferrand will be at Bar Convent Berlin. On the agenda: tastings of exciting new products, a masterclass with Alexandre Gabriel, as well as a Planteray Rum takeover with Nico de Soto. We can’t wait to see you there!
From September 28th to 30th, Maison Ferrand will have a stronger presence than ever at the Whisky Live show. Exceptional tastings, a round table discussion, and masterclasses will punctuate the event throughout these three days. We can't wait to see you there!
2024 is off to a great start and we're proud to see our brands recognised in prestigious international competitions. These medals reward the hard work and passion our teams put in every day!
Bringing together and sharing of knowledge between our teams in Barbados and Cognac is part of our core values. We believe that sharing is the key to progress and that pooling our respective experiences can only enhance our capabilities.
Our constant quest to create spirits with unique flavours has led us to explore a fascinating new idea: infusing the wood of our rum casks with tonka beans during the manufacturing process. To discover our first results, follow the guide!
