Three Barrels dates back to 1814, when it was founded as the Pinet Casillion company, and used three stacked barrels as the logo, allegedly depicting the number that could be carried on a sledge pulled by huskies in Canada. The company was acquired by Raynal in 1840 and rebranded as Pellisson.
As the brandy's popularity grew, the logo became more identifiable than the company itself and in 1947 was simply rebranded "Three Barrels Brandy". Today it is the best-selling brandy in the United Kingdom. |
