HISTORY, GENESIS & PASSIONS
The Protea France adventure began with a passion for Vines, Oak and Cognac. All three driven with excellence brought us the beautiful nectar of Cognac.
Etienne Hosteing was a vine grower, when he had the vision that oak dresses all the best spirits of the world. Driven by this idea, he ceated Protea France and worked towards the best quality extracts he could make.
In 2014, William took over the company and continued the journey with the same passion and dedication to perfection.
In that matter, in 2017, he created a R&D department, to go always further in quality and perfection.
