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)
Here is, directly from our distillery, the organic water of life Du Capitaine Joe.
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.
Vincent Noel searched long for a way to create a Water of Life worthy of his Blackcurrant: it needed to be, all together, to the taste, fine, strong and delicate. A marvelous show of prowess!
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.
