Founded nearly 400 years ago in the French region of Cognac, Sazerac has since been entirely dedicated to the celebration of the art of distillation, constantly on the look-out for the very best spirits around the world. Now boasting seven award-winning distilleries across five continents and over 80 acclaimed brands on their roster, the family-owned business has built on four generations of passionate professionals to become what is today a premier spirits company known worldwide.
Throughout its extensive history, Sazerac has established a privileged relationship with Canada, a country whose culinary heritage features a wide range of internationally recognized spirits. Deeply respectful of Canadian distillers’ expertise, the company has chosen to produce a vast selection of spirits within the country’s borders including the likes of Fireball, Seagram’s, Dr. McGillicuddy’s and Southern Comfort. Bottled at Sazerac’s Old Montreal Distillery – on the banks of the Saint Lawrence River – these products embody the company’s dedication to craftsmanship.
“At Sazerac, we know firsthand the importance of passion for the craft, and Canada’s know-how when it comes to distilled spirits is known worldwide. We were therefore proud to acquire our distillery in Old Montreal thirteen years ago and we remain dedicated to its development to this day.” – Marcus Daum, General Manager for Sazerac Canada.
