Haleybrooke International has signed a distribution agreement with Terroirs Distillers Artisanal Brands to represent the company’s spirits portfolio in the US, Canada and travel retail.
Part of family-run French spirits group Picard Vins & Spiritueux, Terroirs Distillers was established in 2011 and is now under the stewardship of the third generation of the Picard family.
The company has built an extensive portfolio that includes Tullibardine and most recently, Ballina Distillery.
Tullibardine (pictured above) is a Highland single malt recognised for its grain-to-glass production approach and has earned multiple accolades since its creation in 1947.
The distillery is also one of the few in Scotland to maintain an onsite cooperage and bottling facility, helping preserve its quality and character.
Founded in 1893, Highland Queen (above) was inspired by the spirit of Mary, Queen of Scots.
The blended Scotch whisky is produced at the Tullibardine distillery and has retained its Classic Blend recipe for more than 50 years.
Crafted on the banks of the River Moy in Mayo, Ballina Irish single malt (right) is produced through a small-batch process, with the whiskey slowly double and triple distilled using 100% Irish malted barley.
The brand won best in category for Irish Single Malt Small Batch 12 Years and Under at the World Whiskies Awards 2026.
The three brands will be presented at the Haleybrooke International booth (#411) at the upcoming IAADFS Summit of the Americas (28-31 March) in Orlando, Florida.
Haleybrooke International is owned by drinks industry veteran Patrick Nilson, who spent 26 years with then-industry powerhouse Seagram.
Nilson welcomed the agreement with Terroirs Distillers, describing whisky as a key duty-free category and saying the brands are a strong fit for travel retail consumers and the Haleybrooke portfolio. ✈
