G. Miclo Distillery - Shop

Nestled in an Alsatian valley where fruit distillation is a long-standing tradition, the Miclo distillery is a family business founded in 1962.

For several generations, it has preserved manufacturing methods passed down from father to son, producing eaux-de-vie with powerful and refined aromas. To ensure consistent quality, the distillery sources from the best French orchards, guaranteeing regular supplies and recognized excellence.

These efforts have been repeatedly honored by the Paris General Agricultural Competition, earning the distillery a place on the menus of Michelin-starred restaurants and among the selections of top wine merchants.

Originally specialized in fruit spirits, as is traditional in Alsace, the distillery has successfully diversified its production by developing whiskies and an Alsatian gin. These original creations are now appreciated by enthusiasts for their unique character and quality.

The Miclo distillery is a must-visit to discover Alsatian culture and gastronomy, especially in the Welche region. Guided tours offer an in-depth look at the production process: exploring the stills, cellars, and production secrets. An 8-minute film recounts the distillery’s history and key steps in crafting eaux-de-vie and whiskies. From May to September, an educational garden displays the fruits and berries used for distillation.

At the end of the visit, a free tasting is offered, highlighting typical products such as Amer bière, wild service tree eau-de-vie, and the house whiskies. The shop also offers a wide range of spirits, as well as a selection of Alsace wines, craft beers, and regional products.

Throughout the year, the distillery organizes guided tours, workshops (whisky tasting initiation, food and spirit pairings), and tastings. Excessive alcohol consumption is dangerous for health; please enjoy responsibly.
