Distillerie et Domaines de Provence (operating as Distillerie de Forcalquier) is based in Forcalquier, Haute-Provence the centre of the Provencal aromatic plant trade, where lavender, thyme, rosemary, sage, and hundreds of garrigue herbs have been commercially cultivated and processed for centuries. The distillery draws directly on this herb-growing tradition: botanical sourcing is anchored in the Haute-Provence garrigue rather than the Franco-Swiss mountain tradition that defines most absinthe and pastis production in France.

The range spans multiple categories. Henri Bardouin Pastis is made from 65 plants and spices from the garrigue widely regarded as the most botanically complex pastis on the market and the artisan reference point for the category. The Forcalquier absinthe uses Provencal-sourced wormwood and botanicals rather than the traditional Pontarlier alpine selection, producing a distinctly Mediterranean character. The gin (Clovis) follows the same Provencal-botanical logic. For programmes building a southern-French or Provencal identity in their aperitif and spirits selection, Distillerie et Domaines de Provence provides the most plant-forward, regionally specific expression of these categories in the Bouchon catalogue.
