Nestled in the picturesque village of Rozelieures in the Lorraine region of France, Rozelieures Distillery stands out as a beacon of craftsmanship and innovation in the world of spirits. The distillery distinguishes itself by controlling every aspect of whisky production, from growing its own barley to bottling the final product. This unique approach allows them to fully express the terroir of their local environment, which is characterized by the lush landscapes and rich agricultural heritage of Lorraine. At Rozelieures, the commitment to quality and tradition manifests through a dedication to small-batch distillation, using copper pot stills and double distillation techniques, which are believed to enhance the character and flavor profiles of their whiskies. Rozelieures offers an impressive range of single malt whiskies, most notable among them being the Rozelieures Rare Collection, which features lightly peated expressions, and the entirely unpeated Rozelieures Subtil Collection. Each whisky in these collections is crafted to highlight the unique qualities of the Lorraine barley cultivated on their estate, resulting in distinct flavor profiles that showcase notes of fruit, floral elements, and a subtle earthiness. The distillery's Fume Collection also stands out with its emphasis on peated whiskies, a rarity in French whisky production, making Rozelieures a pioneer in this style within the country.
