Du Capitaine Joe Alcohols
Sour Cherry Liqueur
Presenting, straight from our distillery, the sour cherry liqueur Du Capitaine Joe, a pur product from the homeland, transformed in Quebec, made from organic sour cherries (Griottes) cultivated at our farm.
« "When I create an alcohol recipe, my objectif is to conserve all the natural flavour of the fruit, whether it's blackcurrant or cherry. For the latter, I reduced the amount of alcohol, in relation to the blackcurrant liqueur, so that the cherry is the star of the show - which gives the alcohol a very fine taste, not very sweet. For the pros, I would even add the pits of the cherries is reminiscent of the taste of hazelnuts. " says Vincent Noel, Owner and Distiller.
How does it keep? Like a good wine, it can be stored in a cool, dark place.

Blackcurrant Water of Life (White Brandy)
Voici, directement de notre distillerie, l’eau de vie biologique Du Capitaine Joe. Vincent Noël a cherché à créer une eau de vie digne de ses cassis : qu’elle soit, en bouche, à la fois, fine, puissante et délicate. L’eau de vie représente la quintessence du fruit.
What is a "Water of Life"?
Water of life is a distillation of cereals or fruits. For example, grappa is a marc (grape) water of life, just like calvados is an apple water of life. This pure distillation is originally light in color, because it is unaged like a white Brandy - the typical caramel colour comes from the barrel in which it ages.
How to enjoy it? Taste is in the beholder, as is the same for alcohols. Amateurs of Water of Life enjoy it undilluted at room temperature. The taste of Blackcurrant comes through in full force.
For sale at The Boutique Du Capitaine
Ideal for a flambé over fruit or cake / to macerate fresh fruits / as a "Normand Hole" - in which you can replace Calvados, which is also a Water of Life made of Apples, by our Blackcurrant Water of Life.
Blackcurrant Brandy
Il est fait de cassis biologique, il est vieilli en barrique de chêne.
On the nose we find sweet citrus notes. Then a first strong taste of wood with a slight accent of smoked maple. Then at the end, pleasant aromas of vanilla and blackcurrant.
To taste with dignity as it should for a good Brandy! In a tasting glass, at room temperature, on ice, or in a cocktail. However you like!
