About Bardinet Gastronomie
Bardinet Gastronomie has specialised in the manufacture and sale of culinary alcohols since 1980. It has built up over 30 years of experience at the service of manufacturing, craft food and catering professionals making it the undisputed leader of the sector in France.
A young wine and spirit merchant from Limoges, Paul Bardinet took a curious interest in the sugarcane alcohol that was unloaded onto the docks in France after sailing from far-flung islands. This tafia as it was called at the time was nothing more than fire water for pirates. But beneath its rude exterior, Bardinet detected a treasure trove of flavours and aromas unlike any he'd found before.
Rising through the ranks of his profession, Paul Bardinet set about trying to tame this high-spirited "son of the sun" by enriching the beverage through ageing for a long time in oak barrels. His passion and dedication gave rise to a superior rum and a label that would soon become known the world over. NEGRITA Rum was born, even though it didn't yet bear the name.
