About Comont
Comont is a grain-to-bottle distillery in Bedford, in the Brome-Missisquoi area of the Eastern Townships. It makes its spirits from the raw ingredient onward, and it made Quebec's first spirit from agave that was both fermented and distilled here.
That agave spirit is a curious find for fans of tequila and mezcal who want to taste a Quebec take. Sip it neat, or use it in a margarita-style cocktail on a summer evening. A bottle makes an interesting gift for a friend who likes unusual spirits. It suits adventurous drinkers exploring the Townships.
