Québec is recognised for the uniqueness of its land. Fertile soils and productive orchards sit alongside vast swathes of boreal forest. Mountains are home to crystal-clear streams. Kilometres of marine coastline provide refuge for a rich variety of animal and plant life. This unrivalled natural setting has provided the birthplace for Québec’s distilleries, its inherent flavours and aromas conducive to crafting distinctive, one-of-a-kind spirits: boreal herbs, maple, grains, seaside plants, fruits and algae are just a few examples of ingredients used to create Québec spirits.
