About Distillerie D'Occitanie 

Distillerie D'Occitanie is the only distillery in the Hautes-Pyrénées region of France. The distillery was launched in 2020 by the Dixon family following their creation of the English-style brewery - Brasserie du Pays Toy - in 2017. The team now consists of husband and wife, Paul and Nina Dixon, and their friend Loic Laselle who had previous worked in the brewery. Their gins are cut with Pyrénées mountain water and are distilled in a 500L copper pot sill, both macerating the botanicals and using a vapour basket.

Meet the Makers

There wasn’t a good quality, locally produced gin available. We also realised that a distillery of any kind failed to exist in the Hautes-Pyrenees and to be the first to open one would be a real bonus to us. I felt inspired to make a good quality gin for the people here to enjoy. I wanted to produce something of quality and substance, to let the people here see that there is a lot more to gin than the poor perception they had of it. - Founder, Paul Dixon
