BOURBON BARREL-AGED GIN
Inspired by the clandestine traditions of yesteryear, our Old Tom Gin is a tribute to the famous black cat, symbol of underground distilleries. Aged for a year in bourbon barrels and sweetened with Floramiel's artisanal honey, this black gin combines depth and complexity. Its woody notes, subtly enhanced by honey, offer a unique taste experience.

Breathe in the great outdoors and savour the sensation of freedom felt by the first Europeans in America. With its aromas of Labrador tea and wintergreen, our gin conjures up the dim coolness of the boreal underbrush from the days of the coureurs des bois (woodsmen).
Ingredients Dune pepper, Labrador tea, wintergreen, juniper berries, coriander, angelica root, grains of paradise, butterfly pea flower, orange zest, rose petal.
Tasting notes
When mixed with tonic water, it turns from blue to violet before your amazed eyes! To the nose, an elegant freshness evokes hints of boreal forest undergrowth. The flavour is clear with peppery notes for a smooth and supple finish in the mouth. A classic, it is best savoured with tonic water.
A versatile gin
Cranberries, used for ages by the First Nations, give our gin its coppery hue and sweet notes. To the nose, elderflower reveals a fresh and delicate fragrance. Thanks to the pink pepper that subtly enhances the flavors, this gin is the perfect sidekick in your cocktails!
Ingredients Cranberry, elderflower, juniper berry, coriander, angelica root, orange zest, combava leaf, cubeb pepper, pink peppercorn, bay leaf, cardamom.
Tasting notes
Visually pleasing with a coppery tint created by the post-distillation mashing of cranberries. A distinguished, slightly peppery nose. Strong floral, sweet notes in the mouth, turning to a gradual aftertaste of fruit. Very mild and smooth.
A versatile gin
Let’s rewrite history. What if Jacques Cartier really had discovered a route to Asia? With our Noir gin, we cross the Pacific Ocean! This flavour journey starts with the fresh blast of kaffir lime (combava) and continues until delivery of a cargo of exotic notes supplied by Tasmanian berries.
Ingredients Tasmanian berry, combava leaf, juniper berry, coriander, grains of paradise, cubeb pepper, galangal, rose petal, orange zest, lavender.
Tasting notes
Perfectly clear in colour, this is a clean, straightforward and sweet gin. The nose is predominantly herbal with subtle hints of lemongrass. In the mouth, notes of citrus. Pepper comes through in olfactory feedback.
A versatile gin
In 1535, French explorer Jacques Cartier arrived in Canada by the St.-Laurent seaway, mistakenly thinking he had found a route to Asia. On the spot where Québec City stands today, he found the village of Stadaconé and its Iroquois inhabitants. With his crew, Cartier decided to set up camp one kilometre away from the village and to spend the winter there.
It’s no coincidence that our distillery is located partway between the village of Stadaconé and the spot Jacques Cartier chose for his campsite. We invite you to come partake of a one-of-a-kind immersive experience developed around the theme of first encounters in North America.
Newly established in the thriving Limoilou district, Stadaconé is most assuredly a distillery unlike any other…
Innovation is what drives our distillery. It’s what makes each of our products distinctive, from a visual standpoint and in their composition. In fact, we take pride in offering you the first-ever cranberry gin (the Stadaconé Rouge) and in being the first distillers to put Tasmanian berries in gin (our Stadaconé Noir). The spirit of innovation is also seen in the unique guided tour we offer our visitors. The combination of an immersive escape game and tour of the facility is the first and only experience of its kind in the world!
The quality of our ingredients, products and facilities is one of the pillars of Distillerie Stadaconé. Coming from backgrounds in pharmaceutical packaging – one of the most regulated industries ever – our three scrupulous founders believe no detail is too small. Our standards of cleanliness and traceability, as well as our meticulously documented processes, are of multinational calibre.
