Rinquinquin

Founded in 1898 in Forcalquier, Haute-Provence, Distilleries et Domaines de Provence perpetuates the region’s tradition of aperitifs, liqueurs and spirits. Drawing on the botanical diversity around the Montagne de Lure, the distillery works with aromatic plants including thyme, verbena, juniper, rosemary, sage and wormwood. Its production combines traditional Provençal distillation and maceration with contemporary techniques, while respecting the environment. Four specialists oversee the key stages, from plant picking and maceration to distillation, blending and tasting. Some recipes, including Farigoule and Gentiane de Lure, remain unchanged since their creation. The range includes Pastis Henri Bardouin, absinthes, gins, vermouths and regional liqueurs, expressing a strong connection to Provençal heritage and nature.
