Distillerie Massenez – Roquefort Liqueur – 25%
Founded in 1870 in Dieffenbach-au-Val, Alsace, Distillerie Massenez has earned an international reputation thanks to its mastery of the art of distillation. Renowned for its high-end eaux-de-vie and liqueurs, it has become a benchmark in French gastronomy, seducing Michelin-starred chefs and iconic institutions such as La Tour d’Argent. Since 2010, integrated into Grandes Distilleries Peureux, it has continued its expansion while preserving its artisanal identity and bold creativity.
The Roquefort Liqueur – 25% is one of Massenez’s most singular innovations. Crafted from the very ingredients of the legendary AOP cheese (raw sheep’s milk, salt, ferments, rennet, and penicillium roqueforti), enriched with water, alcohol, and sugar, it reinvents this emblematic French terroir product in liquid form. This daring culinary creation combines cheesemaking tradition with distillation expertise to give life to a truly exceptional liqueur.
This unusual spirit reveals powerful and authentic Roquefort aromas, carried by a soft, perfectly balanced texture. Neat, it surprises with its aromatic fidelity; in mixology, it becomes a choice ingredient for original and daring cocktails; in gastronomy, it lends itself to creative sweet-and-savory pairings, enhancing sauces, desserts, or culinary preparations with a singular touch.
With this unique gastronomic liqueur, Distillerie Massenez demonstrates its ability to unite innovation, terroir, and French heritage, offering an extraordinary spirit that intrigues as much as it delights.
