The Lab

To celebrate its 50th anniversary, our historic boutique at 20 Rue d’Anjou is opening a new space.

Adjacent to the store but independent from it, the Lab is dedicated to sharing, encounters and experiences. Academy classes will now be held in the Lab, during which La Maison du Whisky specialists will introduce a category, style or region, supported by tastings, throughout the year.

A large number of producers will also be invited to give masterclasses. In fact, not a week goes by that we don’t receive a visit from a distiller, blender, cellar master or independent bottler! So the Lab is a great opportunity to make the most of their visits to organize a talk. We will also provide a behind-the-scenes look at our business, adventures, selections and creations…

All of the products presented at the Lab are exclusive to La Maison du Whisky. For decades, we have travelled the world in search of the finest spirits. This activity requires a huge amount of curiosity and complete openness to innovation. The Lab showcases this state of mind, one of the key pillars of La Maison du Whisky. It is in part thanks to this pioneering spirit that hundreds of distilleries have put their trust in us for the import and distribution of their products in France, Europe and across the globe.

LMDW has been the exclusive distributor of Gordon & MacPhail for more than 40 years and for Signatory Vintage since it first began 30 years ago. Both of these bottlers are inexhaustible sources of quality whiskies, from whom we have sourced hundreds of single casks, as well as the various Artist and Artist Collective ranges, and, more recently, Four Styles.
