    Irish Whiskey and Cocktail Culture

    Irish whiskey has seen a global resurgence in recent years, becoming one of the fastest-growing spirits categories worldwide.

    Its smooth character and triple distillation process make it especially suited for cocktails. Unlike heavier whiskies, Irish whiskey often delivers a softer profile, making it ideal for both classic and modern cocktail recipes.

    At Bootlegger Cocktail Bar Montreal, we love exploring how traditional spirits like Irish whiskey can inspire new cocktail experiences.

  • Cocktail of the Month: 100% Québecois Spirit

    Cocktail of the Month: 100% Québecois Spirit

    This month, we are thrilled to highlight a 100% Québecois spirit: Acerum.

    After our first encounter last year, it was the passionate team at Fove
    Distillerie that truly immersed us in this fascinating world. We had the privilege of collaborating with them during exclusive events — and even hosting a special “Guest Bartender” evening at Bootlegger, celebrating local creativity and terroir.

    Acerum is a one-of-a-kind spirit, distilled exclusively from the fermentation of Québec maple sap.
    Since April 2025, it has officially received Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) status — a government recognition that confirms its authenticity and 100% local origin. In other words, to carry the name Acerum, it must be entirely produced in Québec, following strict standards that ensure its purity and artisanal identity.

    A product of local pride, a wonderful discovery, and above all, a perfect source of inspiration for our cocktail of the month — available at Bootlegger throughout the month! 🍁✨
    To stay in the fall–winter spirit, we are offering inspiration for a cosmo made with Acerum.
