FAQ

What does the name HERA mean?

HERA, DERIVED FROM THE WORDS “HE & HER & ERA,”, EVOKES THE FACT THAT AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT, EVERYONE HAS THE POWER TO CREATE A NEW ERA IN THEIR LIVES. HERA ALSO REPRESENTS A BOLD NEW ERA FOR THE SPIRITS INDUSTRY BY REFLECTING CHANGING CONSUMER VALUES AND REINVENTING CLASSICS WITH A MORE MODERATE ALCOHOL CONTENT.

Why 25% alcohol content?

We believe everyone should be able to enjoy the flavour of whisky without having to commit to the intensity of traditional whisky in flavour and alcohol content

What does HERA Delicate Whisky Liqueur taste like?

The short answer is, it tastes like whisky, only not as intense. Blended from quality, local and natural ingredients sourced in Canada, flavour notes include figs, cocoa and almonds.

Does it taste sweet?

While categorized as a liqueur, HERA Delicate Whisky Liqueur is not a sweet beverage and can be enjoyed just like full-proof whisky neat on its own, on the rocks or mixed into cocktails.

Does it contain a lot of sugar?

No, at 50g/L the sugar content works out to be less than 1.5g per 1 oz serving (ie: 1 jigger or bartender’s shot). In comparison…one OREO cookie contains 4.7g of sugar.

How can I best enjoy HERA Delicate Whisky Liqueur?

While categorized as a liqueur, HERA is not a sweet beverage and can be enjoyed just like full-proof whisky neat on its own, on the rocks or mixed into cocktails.

Are there any comparative products in the market?

Other whisky brands offer whisky liqueurs, but none with an authentic whisky taste and 25% alcohol content.

How is HERA Delicate Whisky Liqueur made?

HERA is made from ingredients sourced in Canada from premium, natural sources, and blended into a proprietary recipe at a facility located in Quebec.

Where is HERA Delicate Whisky Liqueur made?

Do you plan on exporting?

Currently only available in Quebec, our plans include Canadian and international distribution. Please contact us for more information.

What does the label art represent?

The abstract artwork on the label evokes the emotions of celebration, freedom, creativity and joy. With its explosive colors and strokes, it also represents the product’s tasting notes which include fig, almonds and cocoa.

Why did you choose Lysa Jordan?

As a strong female artist, we adore Lysa’s work and thought it would be nice if everyone could have a bit of Lysa’s art at home. We reached out to her to ask if she’d be interested in collaborating on our label art. Lysa agreed and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the result!
