40 ans du Whisky Francais

Four decades ago, Warenghem distillery started to produce french whisky in Brittany! Today, over a hundred and twenty distilleries, located in the 13 regions of metropolitan France, develop this category.

French whiskies' awareness has grown year after year, since French distilleries have boldly multiplied experimentations on grain varieties, yeasts, barrels and distilling methods, capitalizing on long-term know-hows from other categories. As a result, there is now a wide array of unique aromatic profiles, which showcases proudly french expertise.

Celebrating French whiskies' 40th anniversary is essential, and generate an opportunity to envision the next decades.

On this webpage, which will evolve every week for a month, you will be able to discover the most exciting new releases and core whiskies from renowned distilleries, as well as key topics connected to this category, born 40 years ago, and with a bright future ahead.
