" Nous distillons les marc et les lies des plus beaux terroirs de Bourgogne. "

" Niché à Beaune au coeur de la Bourgogne, SAB’s est aux commandes d’un alambic « ambulant », un alambic très particulier car il se déplace et distille au village c’est-à-dire sur le lieu-même des récoltes comme on pouvait le faire au siècle dernier. "

"Sa démarche : valoriser des produits de terroirs bourguignons et des alcools oubliés en mêlant subtilement tradition et innovation et en misant sur le goût et le savoir-faire. Mathieu nous apprend ainsi qu’il se consommait avant les deux guerres autant de marcs et de fine de Bourgogne que de Cognac, alcools presque totalement disparus à ce jour… De quoi nourrir sa motivation et son projet.. ""

"Passionate about the heritage and history of French spirits, Mathieu Sabbagh quickly became interested in a category of liqueur from the region that had disappeared."

​"Matthieu Sabbagh has taken the challenge of rekindling the flame of Burgundy spirits. Every year he puts his itinerant still on the squares of the most prestigious villages in order to distil directly on the places of harvest "

« On ne distille pas du marc ou de la fine comme on distille industriellement, on est dans le cuivre et la vapeur, comme il y a cent ans, avec un outil des plus performants. »

"Le métier de distillateur et de bouilleur ambulant est en voie de disparition. Il y a encore cinquante ans, il existait un bouilleur par village en Bourgogne. Aujourd’hui, nous ne sommes plus qu’une petite dizaine à perpétuer cette tradition. "

« De nombreux climats bourguignons portent le nom de ‘Genevrièvres’. Le genévrier est un conifère endémique de la Bourgogne, c’est même l’arbre de la Saint-Vincent, la fête du saint-patron des vignerons ! Cela fait donc totalement sens de concevoir un gin de Bourgogne."

" Nous distillons les marc et les lies des plus beaux terroirs de Bourgogne. "

"Long vilified, calvados, armagnac and other marc de bourgogne reinvented themselves in order to better meet consumers' expectations. "

" To the rescue of a trade in danger of extinction, Mathieu Sabbagh, the brand new distiller, wants to rekindle the flame of Burgundy spirits with his itinerant still "

" By becoming one of the last remaining distillers and mobile boiler makers in France, Mathieu Sabbagh is helping to restore the grace of the grape and fine wines that have been unjustly forgotten."

​" The exception is the niche of the Bourguignon Still, which specializes in the production of strong spirits in Côte-d'Or. Not only has it relaunched the production of marc, absinthe and gin made from fruit and grapes, but it is also the last mobile brewer in Côte-d'Or."

« Grande amatrice de spiritueux, Blanche a longtemps été fâchée avec le marc de Bourgogne. «Matthieu Sabbag nous a réconciliés !». Ici, la parfaite expression d'un très beau fruit, où l'on ne sent pas la morsure de l'alcool. L’accord idéal : une fin de repas, et un feu de cheminée devant lequel refaire le monde. »

“Great lover of spirits, Blanche has long been angry with the marc de Bourgogne. “Matthieu Sabbag has reconciled us!” Here, the perfect expression of a beautiful fruit, where you can’t feel the bite of alcohol. The ideal arrangement: an end of meal, and a fireplace in front of which to remake the world.”

​"Mathieu Sabbagh, one of the last itinerant boilers in Burgundy, produces a gin with very fine and delicate aromas, with juniper only coming to support the aromatic bouquet. The palate is on the same trend, with strong peppery notes and the roundness of the eaux-de-vie chardonnay and pinot noir that are added to botanicals."

​"The culinary college of France invites to the party. This year, the patron of the Bourguignon Alambic wanted to create the event around his work tool, by inviting many members of the culinary college of France. This association brings together, at a national level, many artisans of mouth and culinary art, quality and proximity."

​" Sabs for Bourguignon Still Company. This very old Marc de Bourgogne is made from Pinot Noir marc. Seven years of aging and a six-month finish in cognac barrels. For wine lovers.

​"A very old fine Burgundy aged seven years in Burgundy chardonnay before a final passage of 6 months in Pineau de Charentes cask. A beautiful treat with floral notes marked by prune and grape."

​" When more than 75% of the calls made in Burgundy are represented, one may be tempted to experiment... This is the case here: this marc has aged in an old Scottish single malt barrel made of peat from the island of Islay... The smoked, flavoured and vanilla content of this fput does not mask the quality of the marc but sublimates it to give it an unprecedented and pastry dimension.

" Notre bouilleur de cru itinérant bouguignon Mathieu Sabbagh distille plus d'un alcool, à commencer par un fin Gin. " "Mathieu Sabbagh relève le défi de faire revivre un métier disparu de nos campagnes : bouilleur de cru itinérant . "

​" At the very end of the wine sale, the auction for the spirits of the Hospices estate, once expeditious, is being extended more and more, proof of growing interest. Since 2018, the marc and the fine of Burgundy are the preserve of Mathieu Sabbagh and his Bourguignon Alembic.

"Absinthe, marc, eau-de-vie, amer... Les bars à cocktails raffolent de ces liqueurs désuètes qui réveillent un patrimoine français unique. " "Mathieu Sabbagh milite pour le renouveau du marc et de la fine de Bourgogne, des eaux-de-vie de raisin depuis longtemps cannibalisées oar le rhum et le whisky."
