History

Maison Victors is an organic (bio) distillery south of Toulouse, founded in 2017, and bases its production on strong values such as quality, authenticity and transparency. Production takes place on-site with equipment and alambics designed by the distillery itself. They emphasize local ingredients, traceability and respect for terroir and the environment. The distillery also highlights their commitment to reducing waste and valuing by-products throughout the value chain, as well as the use of local energy sources and filtered processes to limit environmental impact.

Production / Manufacturing

Ecology and local practices

All production is 100% organic, with a focus on selecting grains and botanical ingredients, strict traceability and local production. They farm locally, work with energy efficiency and the extraction of by-products for the benefit of the local community and the environment.

Process and equipment

They design and produce all spirits at their distillery with their own alambics and equipment. Whisky is produced by mashing and fermenting on-site from organic barley malted in France, distilled in copper pot-still alambics and aged in selected oak casks. The throughline of the production is an environmentally friendly approach: rainwater, energy and heat recovery, and a plan to reduce waste throughout the process.

Products and ranges

• Whisky (Single Malt) from Maison Victors, including editions such as Origines ex fût Bourbon, Origines - Sherry Cask and Origines - Single Cask - ex fût Muscat, all produced as Single Malt and not chill-filtered.

Quality and tasting notes (in general)

The whiskies are described as linked to fruity, sweet or spicy notes with a clear touch of malt and caramel and a natural colour due to being unfiltered. Emphasis is placed on terroir, botanical infusions and slow maturation in casks.

Environment and sustainability

The distillery highlights the use of rainwater, energy-efficient solutions and by-product reuse, as well as plans to produce bottles in the region and to use reduced packaging and wooden screw caps without glue. There are efforts to achieve circular processes and to reduce CO2 impact through innovations in heating and cooling.
