When Bodum took over a small clarinet factory in
Normandy in 1982. It was not because of the fine orchestra clarinets they were
producing but because of a relatively unknown coffee maker called the Chambord
which they, by coincidence, produced as well.
We combined the skills of these Normandy
craftsmen with modern production, and the price became affordable to the many
people who loved the taste of the coffee brewed in this unique coffee maker,
later known as the French press coffee brewer. Thanks to Bodum and thanks to the
increasing need for better coffee, the French press coffee maker became one of
the most popular coffeemakers in the world. The design has not changed a bit
from the original drawings, and we still make the Chambord with the same
painstaking care and knowledge we learned from those proud craftsmen in windy
Normandy.
The ease of brewing... the delicious smell and
taste of French roasted dark coffee have not changed, but the price offered to
you today for a Chambord is no longer the price of the past.
