Overview
Acerum Gaspésienne N°20 is a rare spirit made from 100% Quebec maple sap, distilled according to the strict standards of the Acerum designation. An eau-de-vie that reveals a clean, structured profile shaped by fermented maple and softened by a subtle oak finish.
This is not a sweet maple liqueur but a true eau-de-vie—bold, pure, and uncompromising. Acerum Gaspésienne N°20 offers a layered experience, where forest meets sea in each sip. It’s a refined tribute to the land, the craft, and the enduring spirit of the coast.
Gaspésienne No 20 memorial
Its name honors Gaspésienne N°20, the last surviving wooden fishing boat of its kind—an icon of maritime heritage. Like the vessel, this eau-de-vie reflects precision, patience, and pride. Fermented and distilled with care, it expresses both boreal depth and oceanic tension, rooted in the raw beauty of Gaspésie’s natural rhythms.

By The Nature
We source pure syrup from the Fédération des Producteurs Acericoles du Québec and our own small sugar stand. Fermented, distilled, and aged in oak for three to five years, the result is a dry, complex eau-de-vie that falls between whisky and rum — layered with wood, vanilla, and warm spice, made from maple syrup, the lifeblood of our land.
Graceful, evolving tasting experience:
With aromas of toasted maple, soft oak, and honeyed spice, Gaspésienne No. 20 is elegant and unexpected. Enjoy it neat, on the rocks, or as a rum substitute in cocktails — it’s a taste of Gaspé’s forest and sea, refined by time.

Product History
Every spirit we make begins with a question: Can we capture Gaspé itself in a bottle? With Radoune, we distilled the forest. With St. Pierre, we bottled our history. With Gaspésienne No. 20, we ventured into new territory — a spirit made from maple syrup, the lifeblood of our land. We dreamed of making rum, but importing molasses proved impractical. Instead, we turned to something truly local: maple syrup. That choice helped pioneer Acérum, a new spirit category uniting distillers across Québec — fermented, distilled, and aged entirely from maple syrup. Named after the historic Gaspésienne No. 20 cod-fishing vessel, this spirit honors our maritime heritage. It captures the courage and resilience of Gaspé’s fishermen while embracing innovation and craftsmanship.
