Having worked in the French vineyards and in the distilleries of Cognac, Hugo Asbach had become skilled in the art of distilling fine wines to produce cognac. His goal was to create a product equal to French cognacs and at the sane time cater to German tastes. So, at the tender age of just 24, he started his business with two operating stills.
