Charlotte Buisson Dackow

co-founder Distillerie de l’Arbre Sec

PARIS, FRANCE

Born and raised in Burgundy, Charlotte grew up surrounded by vineyards and wine—one might say she was immersed in it from childhood! After studying enology and viticulture in Beaune, she set out to explore every facet of the wine world, working in vineyards, wineries, and sales. But after more than a decade of experience, her true passion emerged: wine tasting and sharing her love for wine.

Her journey took her from France to New Zealand and California, but it was in the British Isles that she discovered a new fascination—craft gin. Inspired, she decided to start her own distillery in France and trained in distillation at Silent Pool Distillery in England. Back in Paris, she began developing her project, only to realize that bringing her ambitious vision to life would take more than just one person.

That’s when she joined forces with Charlotte Bartoli, and together, they co-founded Distillerie de l’Arbre Sec—a venture driven by their shared passion for craftsmanship, innovation, and exceptional spirits.
