In this episode of The Operator’s Table, host Cris Morgado sits down with Pierre Bardinet, Technical Director & US Export Manager at Les Bienheureux — the team behind Bellevoye French whisky and rums like El Pasador de Oro and Embargo — to unpack how they’re redefining what French-made spirits can be while gearing up for a major 2026 US launch.

Pierre shares his family roots in wine and rum, the early lessons from scaling a distillery 10× while improving quality, and why blind tasting is the company’s non-negotiable for every new product.

They dive into the big shifts in whisky and rum trends (premiumisation vs “de-premiumisation,” new world whiskies, traceability in rum, low/no-alcohol), and how Les Bienheureux is using French credibility plus Costa Rican terroir to stand out in crowded categories.

From there, the conversation moves into the operator seat:

  • How they position French whisky in markets dominated by Scotch & American whiskey
  • Why single-estate Costa Rican rum and transparency are central to their growth story
  • Where AI, automation and data could transform sales reporting, forecasting and content at scale
  • What makes an ideal importer / distributor partner and how they systemise finding them
  • The KPIs and headlines Pierre wants to celebrate in 2026 as they launch in the US

In the final stretch, Pierre shares what keeps him grounded — daily bike rides along the Hudson, a strong value-driven team culture at Les Bienheureux — plus:

  • A long-form biography of Napoleon as a surprising leadership playbook
  • His golden nugget for anyone building a career in spirits: never lose sight of the consumer, and never trade your values for short-term wins
  • Why bringing “good products to good people” is the simple why behind his work

If you’re into premium spirits, export strategy, distributors, this episode is packed with operator-level insight.

  • How to think about cash, margins, COGS and marketing spend without sinking the business
  • Building distribution in alcohol & beverage through the three-tier system and deep distributor relationships
  • Growing in concentric circles instead of chasing national scale too early
  • The mindset behind his Substack, “Less Grind, More Joy”, and why joy, walking and reflection matter just as much as strategy and KPIs
  • How community, friendships and a strong “second seat” network keep you going when entrepreneurship gets tough
