Stadaconé Distillery is a place where history meets innovation, where the past inspires the present. Located in the lively Limoilou district, this distillery is not just a place to produce spirits, but an immersive experience that transports you to the time of the first encounters in North America. With a focus on quality and innovation, Stadaconé offers a range of unique products, from gin to liqueurs, each with its own story to tell. The distillery's commitment to using only the finest ingredients and careful attention to detail ensures that every product is a testament to the art of distillation.
The distillery offers a unique experience with a fun escape room and informative tour of the production area, followed by tastings of creative products, including gins and ready-to-drink cocktails, with friendly and knowledgeable staff.
For a fairly new distillery (opened in 2019), they’ve got things pretty figured out! We went in as a group of 4 for the distillery tour. Started off with a fun escape room game, then into the distillery for a tour, then a tasting at the end. They currently have a whiskey project ongoing that should be ready in about 1 years time (we’ll be back for that!). I personally don’t drink a lot of gin, but the tasting also included canned cocktails and flavoured liquors. The staff here were really great and a lot of fun. Highly recommend!
The distillery has wheelchair-accessible parking and entrance, and accepts debit cards and NFC payments.

"text": "This place really was a full package experience. We started our visit with an escape room game, based on the history of the city, in a room shaped as a boat. The concept was very cool and took about 15 minutes, relatively easy to figure out. The final prize that was won by figuring out the answers were our glasses with the brand printed on them, which was a very nice touch. We then proceeded to a visit of the production and fermentation area, the labeling and packaging. It wasn't very big but super interesting and well explained. After the visit, we had the opportunity to taste 8 different products which were very creative but the gins themselves were too aromatised for our liking. Our prefered products were the ready-to-drink cocktails like the KombuGin and the white SangriGin. The staff doing the tasting were super friendly ! We had great conversations with them. There was also a store where you could buy their merchandise and honestly, their branding is on point, specifically the shaker kit. Overall a great experience I would recommend!",

"text": "Amazing distillery with a fun tour and delicious gin tastings. The 5 star ratings are definitely 100% !!\nBefore the tour you start with a short escape room. This would of been a lot of fun except I was with my egotistical husband who took it way too seriously and he spoiled the fun and wouldn't let me contribute to solving any of the puzzles. . Luckily I was able to escape into my own mind during the gin tastings which were phenomenal. Our host was very informative and made the experience great. 5/5 for the Distillery, gin and tour. 0/5 for my husband.",

"text": "Our trip to Stadecone from Toronto was so worth it! I was able to get a tour of the distillery and see how they make their blue gin! There was an amazing aroma from the botanicals being used in the process. JC was so kind to give us the history behind the business, and offered us a tasting! I can’t wait to make my gin and tonic now with Stadecone - it turns purple in the glass when you add the tonic! EXCITED!!!",
