Maison Ferrand was revitalized in 1989 by Alexandre Gabriel with a mission to preserve artisanal French spirits and traditional distillation methods. Located at the Château de Bonbonnet in Ars, France, the house is globally celebrated for its innovative wood finishes and historical recipe recreations.
