Our delicious cheeses
It’s a well-known fact that our cheeses have no reason to envy foreign imports. Québec alone produces over 500 kinds. Whether they are soft, semi-firm, firm, blue-veined or fresh, our cheeses are unequivocally very popular and flavourful. We mustn’t forget to mention cheese curds, a typically Québec product added to our poutines!

Maple delicacies
The daily freeze-thaw cycle of the spring climate allows production of maple sap. Once this resource is transformed, it gives us the maple syrup we cheerfully pour on our pancakes, waffles or French toast. By-products such as maple butter, sugar, caramel, sugar loaf and candy or maple-based alcoholic beverages delight everyone.

Alcohol and spirits
Raw materials, passion, knowhow and creativity: Québec has everything it takes to produce distinctive alcoholic beverages. We have developed expertise in producing gins, vodkas, rums and must-taste liqueurs made from a blend of Canadian whiskey and maple syrup.
