DISTILOIRE SPIRITUEUX
Go there and contact
In 2017, cellar master Benoît Chaigneau founded Distiloire, an artisanal spirits producer that makes Gin 1924, Pastis Meskad and Vermouth Douce Folie from local wines. Some of the plants are organically grown and sourced locally (Val de Loire), and the alchemy occurs to create authentic spirits with a flavor far removed from that of industrial beverages. While gin is essentially made from juniper berries, coriander seeds, angelica root and chamomile, pastis features no less than twenty plants, including the essential licorice and anise, as well as Tonka bean, cardamom, Sichuan pepper, lemon balm and thorn shoots, a nod to its Vendée origins. Benoît is the only professional to produce these beverages in the department, and one of only a handful in the West. Now certified organic, the passionate cellar master won two prizes at the Concours aénéral Agricole Paris 2020: gold for Gin 1924 and silver for Pastis Meskad. The latest award: Spiced Rhum 5.5.
