The origins of BOWEN Cognac stem from a particularly romanesque adventure.

At the turn of the century, the founder of the brand, who inherited several estates in the region of Cognac, driven by his passion for travel and exoticism, decided to mix business with pleasure by representing his companies in all four corners of the world.

At that time, his favourite territories were to be found in the French colonies in Africa and Indochina.

In the course of one of his trips, he met an outstanding lady, Elisabeth Bowen,with a passion for nature and wild life, who literally captivated him by her audacity and thirst for freedom. It was especially for her that he crafted a particularly elegant cognac which still bears her name to this day.
