Come and meet us
Our Boutique welcomes you in Forcalquier !
9 Avenue Saint Promasse, 04300 Forcalquier
Completely renovated this winter, our store has a new look with a new space that invites you to discover the distillery through its history full of tastes!
From the gathering of the plants to the copper still, through the manufacturing methods and know-how, you will dive into the heart of our distillery, which is more than a century old.
This didactic tour, both simple and rich in information, will also allow you to see who is behind our products in our video space.
And Marie-Noëlle, our store manager, will also share with you some of our manufacturing secrets, during a tasting session, in moderation, of course...
Our job : "distilling" the perfumes of Haute Provence all over the world
The Distillerie de Lure was created in 1898 in Forcalquier. For nearly 80 years, it has had a succession of owners, including Henri Bardouin, a man with a passion for plants. Then, in 1974, Alain Robert and a small team took over the company, which is now called Distilleries et Domaines de Provence. Several of our emblematic brands have existed since the origin of the Distillery, such as Farigoule or Gentiane de Lure, others have been developed over time taking into account the evolution of tastes and consumption patterns.
Today, our specialties are sold in more than 80 countries around the world.
