A micro-distillery was set up quite
recently at Mont-Saint-Jean farm. This place infused with history,
character and authenticity is now rediscovering a tradition of
yesteryear, by embarking on the distillation of high-quality gin
and whisky.
At the time, there was already a
distillery on the site because it was an effective way of
transforming out-of-date beer. Waterloo beer is the base component
of both Waterloo gin and whisky. The only difference is that the
whisky distillate is not altered in any way at all, while various
spices and plants are added during the manufacturing process to
enhance the flavour of the gin.
The whisky won't be available till 2020.
