Mariana | Distillery & Brewery (Craft Beer & Brewery in Trois-Rivières QC)

Mariana Distillery & Brewery sits in Trois‑Rivières, Québec, and has made a habit of turning the province’s wild botanicals into something that actually tastes like the forest rather than a science‑lab experiment. Their flagship gin, Canopée, is steeped with black spruce (Picea mariana), delivering a dry, pine‑kissed finish that feels like a brisk walk among towering trees. The rum, Morbleu, is a daring mash‑up of tropical spices and northern grit, proving that you can be both warm‑hearted and razor‑sharp in a single sip.

The place isn’t just a production line; it’s a playground for the curious. Visitors can watch the distillation process (the crew actually explains it without putting you to sleep), join hands‑on workshops, and sample cocktails that showcase the house‑infused spirits with a flair that would make a master mixologist blush. The on‑site restaurant adds a unique tasting experience, pairing food with the very drinks that inspired it.

All this happens inside a meticulously restored building that wears its history like a badge of honour. The design is sharp, the storytelling earnest, and the overall vibe is a reminder that craft can be both sophisticated and utterly enjoyable.
