Sortilege Wild Apple Liqueur

$69.00
Overview

Sortilège Blueberry uses the same Canadian whisky and Quebec maple syrup as the original Sortilège, plus wild blueberries from Lac Saint-Jean, Quebec. It's part of a recipe tradition going back more than 200 years to the settlers of New France, who flavoured spirits with maple syrup long before it became a bottled liqueur.

Distillery Information

Sortilège comes from Quebec, built on a recipe that traces back to the settlers of New France, who flavoured eau-de-vie with maple syrup to make it their own. The modern liqueur blends Canadian whisky with genuine Quebec maple syrup, and the Blueberry expression takes that same base and adds wild blueberries from Lac Saint-Jean, a region known for the fruit.

Who this bottle is for
  • Drinkers after a fruitier, sweeter take on maple whisky
  • Fans of the original Sortilège wanting something different
  • Anyone after an easy sipper or a simple cocktail base
  • Newcomers who find a straight whisky a bit too intense
How to enjoy

  • Best served neat or over ice
  • Good topped with soda water for a simple spritz
  • Works well in a fruit cocktail
  • Pairs naturally with dessert, especially anything with berries
