Published on January 5, 2022

Located in Saint-Hyacinthe, NOROI Distillery began its operations in March 2019. Its artisans are driven by a passion to innovate and create spirits and ready-to-drink cocktails, including a selection of low-alcohol options, that never compromise on taste!

Interestingly, the distillery doesn’t rely on a dealcoholisation process. Instead, the research and development team in the NOROI labs finds ways to perfectly replicate the flavours of classic drinks. The secret? Accuracy and attention to detail to recreate the tastes and aromas of spirits and other alcohol-based products.
