Many of you are looking to add local wines to your choices, and to your table. But what to choose?

Gin is a spirit flavoured with juniper berries. While its popularity has gone through ups and downs over time, the past 30 years’ boom in cocktails and spirits has led consumers to take a much closer interest in it.

The term eau-de-vie comes from the Latin aqua vitae and broadly refers to any distilled spirit. The expression most often describes unaged spirits with no added sugar. Typically enjoyed as a digestif, eaux-de-vie include classics such as kirsch, Williams pear, sloe, and aquavit.

Vodka, by definition, is a clear, neutral spirit. Highly appreciated for its subtle taste and smooth mouthfeel, it stands as a refined signature product for distillers, who sometimes use it as a base for their creative work—most notably in gin production.

An iconic drink among spirit lovers, whisky is made from fermented grains—wheat, corn, rye, or, most often, barley. To be labelled as whisky, it must have a minimum alcohol content of 40% and be aged in oak barrels for at least three years. The rarest whiskies can mature for over 50 years. While whisky production involves several steps, barrel ageing remains the most crucial. It is what ultimately defines the true identity of the final product.

Liqueurs are timeless sweet spirits that are a staple of any respectable bar. While some heritage liqueurs created more than 200 years ago remain popular—thanks in part to their use in many cocktails—newcomers are also making their mark. Made from fruit, plants, nuts, coffee, or flowers, they come in all kinds of styles!
