Quebeccøl – Resinous Blueberry
Quebeccøl – Resinous Blueberry
At Québécøl, we have set ourselves the goal of making you drink all the colors! Here is the beautiful mauve, our Blueberry and Fir liqueur, or the official liqueur of Quebec! (self-proclaimed)
Where does such pretension come from? From the far north to Estrie, from Gatineau to Gaspé, who doesn't have access to at least one of the ingredients in this unique formulation? Combining our 100% maple alcohol with wild blueberries and a touch of fir collected directly in front of the sugar shack (and pricked by hand), this wonder combines well with bubbles and can be drunk in a cocktail or alone with a few ice cubes. Made with local products, our liqueur is an example of what Quebec ingenuity can achieve.
For cocktail ideas, it’s here !
Our Québécøl (Quebec alcohol) is 100% local, to be enjoyed after teasing trout in the thawing stream, after a bike ride, after putting the skidoo away in the garage or just listening to the geese passing by on a beautiful fall day.
In addition to our maple syrup, which we ferment and distill to produce the base used to produce our liqueurs, this delicious beverage could not have been produced without the participation of our local collaborators :
- Wild blueberries and haskap berries certified without pesticides are hand-picked in Saguenay and are transmitted to us through the Bleu et Bon group. Because we all agree, Saguenay is THE blueberry region! Haskap berries have recently made their debut in Quebec and are already charming with their pronounced and fruity taste.
- Rhubarb is grown by the Ferme du fond du 2 , in Weedon, in Estrie.
- The fir branches are lovingly collected in front of the sugar shack, then each thorn is extracted by hand to extract the best fragrances from this emblematic conifer.
Be proud, it’s the spirit of maple and that of a region that you hold in your glass!
Québécøl products come from Quebec terroir and we rely on active participation with producers from our region and neighboring regions to offer you a 100% Quebec product.

100% St-Romain
All of the distillery's products are made in the municipality of St-Romain, on the border between Estrie and Beauce. Maple syrup is produced on the Érablière École site and everything is overseen by the St-Romain Development Committee. The Distillerie CDSR du Granit is therefore a community project led by people who are proud of their region and their heritage. We are happy to share our passion with true alcohol lovers and die-hard maple promoters.
Maple Artisans
At Québécøl, we like to do things differently, and that of course includes our maple products. In order to represent our efforts to offer you maple differently, we chose the name Québécøl, this molecule found in maple syrup and associated with a multitude of benefits ( learn more ). Much more than classic maple products, what we offer you is a whole new variation of maple products. We can be proud of the potential of our maple syrup and with good reason, since Quebec is the world's largest producer of this unique product!
Supported by university research
The CDSR du Granit Distillery is pleased to partner with the Industrial Research Chair on Maple Technologies , under the umbrella of the Biomass Technologies Laboratory . These two entities combine high-level university research to support the delicious Québécøl products that we offer you.
