Lorraine, located in the northeast of France, is a region renowned for the fineness and diversity of its eaux-de-vie. This region, with its continental climate, offers a unique terroir that favours the cultivation of high-quality fruits, essential for the production of exceptional eaux-de-vie. The Mirabelle de Lorraine eaux-de-vie are particularly famous and benefit from a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI). The mirabelle, a small golden plum, finds an ideal terrain here to develop with a delicate and savoury aroma, offering a liqueur that is both smooth and powerful. Besides mirabelle, Lorraine also produces other fruit eaux-de-vie such as quetsch or kirsch, resulting from artisanal distillation methods passed down from generation to generation. Local distillers, passionate and respectful of traditions, take pride in bringing out the best of the fruits, ensuring eaux-de-vie of great purity and aromatic complexity. For enthusiasts and cellar managers, Lorraine thus offers a wealth of choices and unrivalled quality, essential for any collection of premium eaux-de-vie.
