Bordeaux distillery producing whiskies, gin and rum distilled on site, and offering tours with tastings.
Producing a 100% Bordeaux whisky in the wine capital of France was a daring move! The distillery took shape in 2017 in a former bunker when Jean-Philippe Ballanger created the Moon Harbour brand in a nod to the port of the Moon. It produces a range of unique whiskies distilled on a Bordeaux still and aged in barrels from Bordeaux grands crus bottled on site. The latest addition, Dock 3, is smoked with seaweed from the Arcachon basin and aged in Château La Louvière barrels. An incredibly aromatic gin and an amber rum complete the range.

Disappointed. We were really excited to go here and booked the tour in advance. Our tour consisted of 10 people, only two of which were native French speakers. The entire tour was conducted in French, so we really didn’t understand anything of what we saw in the buildings. That was really a shame. If we had known the tour was going to be in French, we could’ve prepared ourselves for that. We certainly never expect everything to be in English, but it would have been nice to know in advance. Our guide didn’t seem to care that most of the participants in the tour could not understand her. I am glad this was included in our City Pass because if we had paid for it, we would’ve been extremely disappointed.

As English speaking people, we joined the French speaking tour, and we we're provided with a translation booklet that was helpful. The coolpart was entering the bunker and seeing the whisky walls. It was a fun and great experience to especially break up the wine tours. Great staff and the Gin is devin and a must purchase!
