Reims champagne seller recommended this whiskey and after we tasted it, had to go! Nice visit with friendly owner. Kids along and they played with his dog as we walked around. Tried everything and bought many. Will be returning in a couple weeks to get more, as what I had was loved by all at my last party (and consumed!)... More

Two months after returning from France and with my first glass of guillon no 1 in hand I am reminded to write this review. The drive to Guillon is easy and enjoyable, although we did encounter road closures into Louvois and hence visited on our way back from Riems to Epernay. we were welcomed and given a very informative tour...

We went here on a fluke to see what it was like and really enjoyed the tour. It is a very small distillery in Louvois but the whisky they produce is very nice. They are a bit pricy but when you are there you feel like bringing a bottle back is just the right thing to do. The packaging is... More

This is not like a champagne cave tour. This is very much a family business that allows people to stop in, look around, and taste-informally. We loved our visit. The hosts spoke good English and were very friendly. After a little explanation of how their whiskeys are made, we were taken into the reception house, (a lovely cabin) to sample... More

This was an excellent stop on the way to Reims; it is located on Route de Verzy, LOUVOIS near Faux de Verzy (forest). The tour was good, our host very pleasant, the whiskey-making process was explained, and we were allowed to touch and smell the product at different stages. Then we were taken into the bar and offered samples of... More

Disclaimer: I love whiskey. I love friendly and generous hosts. I love "different". This review may therefore be biased. Tucked in the forest of Champagne, a little maison decides it shall NOT produce fizzy wine. Instead, they decided that since Champagne is the largest producer of barley (fun fact #1), it shall do the grain some justice and turn it... More

This was an excellent stop. And just a short distance from the lovely little champagne village of Bouzy. (How can you resist visiting a Boozy village or a Distillery in Champagne country?) The tour was good, our host very pleasant and the tasting truly interesting. Not being a connoisseur of Whiskey, I fell in love with the mellow 6-year blend,... More

This is the only genuine whisky distillery in France and is halfway between Louvois and Vercy, near Rheims. We called here after visiting several champagne houses - it is on the Champagne Tourist Trail. We were greeted warmly and were treated to a tour of the distillery in English - a French couple had one at the same time in... More
