Ludo Delamer

Export Sales Manager Latin America, Africa & Western Europe @ Boann Distillery

About

Growing up in the Cognac region in France, I have always been interested in making fine spirits. Eager to travel and learn new skills, I moved to Ireland to make whiskey. I have had the chance to distil award-winning spirits such as "World's best new make" and "World's Best London Dry Gin". Now, I am exporting our fine spirits to Western Europe, Latin America and Africa.
