Crillon Importers also launched Magellan Gin, the original blue gin. Apart from these spirits “ pioneering “ a category , Crillon Importers also dedicated itself to importing brands strongly rooted in their homeland. Rhum Barbancourt, the most famous Haitian brand, was also brought into the Crillon fold The company now belongs to the iconic Distilleries et Domaines de Provence owned by the Robert family, a century old French distillery located in Forcalquier Provence, France..
