About Distillerie Wabasso

Distillerie Wabasso is the first distillery in Trois-Rivières, in the Mauricie region, founded in 2017. It makes gins with boreal botanicals, vodkas and ready-to-drink gin cocktails in cans.

The canned cocktails are handy for a picnic by the St. Lawrence, a camping trip or a summer evening on the balcony. The boreal gins bring the taste of Quebec's forest to a classic gin and tonic at home. A bottle makes a good souvenir from Trois-Rivières or a gift for someone who enjoys local spirits. It suits curious drinkers and proud Mauricie locals alike.
