Busnel was founded by Ernest Bunel in 1820. After the company's founding, Bünel began collaborating with Madame Ketel, who was involved in finding and selecting the best apple distillates for creating calvados. Ernest's son, Georges, married Ketel's widow and later gave the company its current name. Georges was a perfectionist and devoted all his attention to selecting the best apples for creating Calvados. One day in 1902, he said: "Without good apples, you won't get a great calvados!" Day after day, he monitored Calvados' development and did everything to create the perfect eau de vie. Company history states that Georges sometimes combined up to 12 distillates of different ages to improve his blends. Four generations of the Bunel family, passionate about creating and promoting calvados to the masses, clearly achieved success.
