The french Gin
Welcome to Château de Bonbonnet!
Located in the southwest of France, just minutes from the town of Cognac, Château de Bonbonnet is the home of Citadelle Gin, situated across from our juniper fields.
It was these very juniper berries that inspired our creator, Alexandre Gabriel, in 1996 to create Citadelle Gin, making it the pioneer of craft gins in France and around the world.
The Heart of Citadelle Gin
Château de Bonbonnet is the heart of Citadelle Gin, embodying our dedication to craftsmanship.
Here, we’ve built the distillery, surrounded by juniper fields where we harvest the berries for our Gin de France.
It’s also a place of gathering, where we share our gin-making passion and our creativity with those who visit.
