BACHE GABRIELSEN

Founding and History

• Bache-Gabrielsen was founded in 1905 by Thomas Bache-Gabrielsen, a Norwegian officer with a passion for Cognac. After moving to France, he purchased the house of E. Dupuy Cognac and established his own brand, combining French Cognac-making tradition with his Scandinavian heritage. Today, Bache-Gabrielsen is still a family-owned business, managed by the fourth generation of the Bache-Gabrielsen family.

• Over the years, Bache-Gabrielsen has grown to become one of the largest independent Cognac producers, particularly popular in Scandinavia. Known for its innovative approach and commitment to producing quality Cognac at accessible price points, the house has expanded its offerings while maintaining its roots in traditional methods.
