About the Producer Louis Roque
Louis Roque was part of a family of distillers whose roots can be traced back to 1835. In 1905, he moved to a former convent in Souillac, where he began distilling pears and plums provided by local farmers, and creating brandies aged in oak casks in the property’s cellars, which he then sold. The business was continued by his descendants after his death and is today run by his grandson.
