Autorenporträt
Connoisseurs of brandy will recognize the name Hubert Germain-Robin as a world-class master distiller and master blender. Germain-Robin is the current generation of a cognac distilling tradition that dates back to 1782 in Cognac, France. In the early 1980s he moved to Mendocino County, California and became recognized and respected in America for his brandies and eaux de vie. He was among a handful of small artisan distillers, mainly in California, who were revolutionizing America's attitudes toward spirits and cocktails and he remains a leader in the art and craft of distillation. The Spirit Journal considers Hubert Germain-Robin "one of the world's top ten distillers."
