Cognac

Created in 1817 to impress the future King George IV, this cognac is an experience in elegance. It reveals notes of fresh apricot, vanilla, and delicate oak. If it was good enough for a king, your host will love it too.

Scotch and whisky

An award-winning single malt celebrated for its elegance. Its double maturation in Bourbon and Sherry casks gives it a unique richness: aromas of cocoa, toffee, and cinnamon. A gold medalist at the International Spirits Challenge, it’s sure to earn you points.

Aged four times longer than the standard, this whisky is balanced, flavourful, and refined. A true showcase of Canadian craftsmanship and a double gold winner at the 2024 SIP Awards, it’s the perfect gift for seasoned enthusiasts.

Port

A true Quebec favourite, this classic wins hearts with its elegance and balance. Rich and refined, it’s the perfect match for desserts and cheeses. Who knows—you might just see your gift opened before the night is over.

Ripe fruit aromas, smooth tannins, and beautiful finesse. Perfect with bold cheeses and chocolate desserts, and it keeps for several weeks once opened so you can savour it longer!

Rum

Inspired by the ancient kingdoms of Spain, this rum charms with generous notes of chocolate, fig, and vanilla. It’s like gifting a trip—without the ticket price! Enjoy it over ice or in a cocktail.

Liqueur and cream

Smooth and indulgent, this liqueur is perfect over ice, in cocktails, or drizzled on ice cream. The kind of little treat that defines the holiday season—bottled right here!

This unique, iconic liqueur blends a coffee-and-whisky base with a silky white chocolate cream. United in the glass, it’s pure indulgence.

A rare French delight, this exceptional liqueur combines Poire Williams with artisanal cognac. Refined, soft, and fruity, it’s lovely neat, over ice, or in a cocktail—perfect as an aperitif or digestif.
