Excellent visit by Rebecca. I really liked the link with the history of the region and even learned something new, though I am from the same area. Excellent tasting of the entire product line: two different cognac, pineau, verjus, balsam (included in the price of the visit). My favorites => Pineau des Charentes et verjus Kids friendly!

Frédéric and Rebecca de Bourgoin Cognac are extraordinary people, both passionate and warm. They welcomed our school and knew how to share their love for their profession with the children. Their ability to popularize with simplicity and kindness has captivated the attention of the youngest. In addition to producing cognacs, verjuice and oils of exceptional quality, both good and healthy, they pass on their knowledge with infectious enthusiasm, always with a smile. A superb experience that is both human, educational and gourmet. Thank you to them for this unforgettable moment! Nathalie & Lou

Whether you know cognac or not, you have to visit Bourgoin! Bourgoin's approach is innovative, modern and unexpected, but the family spirit and respect for traditions remain. Rebecca welcomed us very warmly, and shared a passionate speech that came straight from the heart. I recommend 100%. Thanks again!
