Distillerie de Montréal's Rosemont & Honey Whiskey…read more Today, during a quick stop at the SAQ, I stumbled across two bottles from Distillerie de Montréal that immediately caught my attention. Being a whiskey and bourbon fan -- especially since the LCBO and SAQ don't always carry my usual imports anymore -- I've had to get more adventurous with my choices. Like most of us, I'm on the hunt for new favourites to add to my home bar. First, the Rosemont Whiskey grabbed me. Growing up around Rosemont, I felt an instant connection to it. Then I noticed their Honey Whiskey sitting next to it , so into my basket it went too -- there was no way I was leaving one behind! I decided to pour a glass of each as soon as I got home, and wow. That was honestly my first reaction. Then after another sip... wow again. These whiskeys are rich and surprising -- every sip uncovered a truckload of flavor, like they'd been waiting to shine all along. The Rosemont is smooth, balanced, and super drinkable while the honey version is warm and sweet without being too syrupy -- a luxurious finish that feels perfectly crafted. And here's the thing: as someone who normally reaches for classic bourbons and aged whiskeys , I wasn't expecting these local options to hit this hard. They absolutely deserve a top-shelf spot. Frankly, if I owned a bar, I'd feature these front and center -- these bottles are that good. Thanks, POTUS -- and all the weird import restrictions -- for pushing me to look local. This is one of those discoveries you want to shout about! In short: I'm in love, and I can't wait to introduce these bottles to friends and family at my next gathering. Cheers to Distillerie de Montréal -- you've earned a fan for life!

Thorough | Informative | Fun…read more Thorough: The entire process was really easy. From my initial call with Cedric and the team, they were quick, easy and very knowledgeable on the numbers. They were also very flexible with pricing in terms of making it at a point where my group of 22 dudes for a bachelor party felt comfortable. informative: The trip was great, every stop came with access to how each brewery made their beer and a variety of taste test (2 - 4 beers). Our package came with 4 breweries and food at the final stop. The food options were cheeseburger, poutine, and a salad. Fun: Overall Cedric matches your energy level. We had a rowdy group which was a bit intoxicated. Our group had a great time, learned a lot and having transportation included took a big burden off of our group. We had a pretty cool 25 passenger bus which took us to every location. It was a great way to see other parts of the city. each leg of the trip was 10-12 minutes long, so we could chat, see some sights, and ask questions about the city. Pro Tip: Call ahead and price shop around. Depending on group size you may want to go with another place because they are on the higher end of the brew tour industry in Montreal. However, if you have 16+ people in your group ... they are the only game in town that guarantees transportation and seating for everyone in your group.

This was the best experience i have ever had! For starters our tour guide, Mat was amazing! We had…read morean issue getting to the location on time and we're about 15-20mins late and Matt stayed in contact with me through text while we navigated our way to the pick up location. Once we arrived, Mat was super welcoming and understanding of us being late. He provided us with so much knowledge about beer, local breweries, his personal experience with brewing beer, and history about the city. We met some great people on this tour and made friends that we are still in contact with. I want to go back to Montreal just so i can do this tour again with the hopes of having May as our guide again. I would recommend this tour to anyone that likes beer or doesn't like beer. I'm not a huge beer drinker but the experience helped me develop more of an appreciation. I love trying new things and this tour allows you to try such a variety of things i would have never tried on my own.

The tour consisted of beers from three different stops, with some light bites to pair with the beers. The walk to the final bar was the furthest, but it wasn't too bad considering Andy gave us some brief history lessons along the way. He even brought us to the old red light district and gave a more detailed lesson on it. It was definitely a fun time, and I'm really glad we added this to the bachelor party itinerary!

Our tour guide was fabulous, so knowledgeable about the origins of beer, and the origins of Montreal. At each location they give you a bunch of beer and it's paired with food/snacks. Even if you have people in your group who don't drink beer they will give you cider at each location, which is rare for most brewery tours I've been on previously. Everyone had plenty of beer and it was a really great value for what we got. Also the online customer service I received was very helpful in securing a group tour for all 13 of hs
