We are pleased to introduce the products of Gourmet Sauvage, a Quebec-based company that has been a pioneer in showcasing the plants and flavours of the boreal forest. For over 25 years, it has been offering exceptional wild products, harvested responsibly by hand and crafted with artisanal expertise. Their unique creations allow for the rediscovery of Quebec’s rich terroir through a sustainable and authentic approach.

 

Sweet clover extract

Sweet clover extract is the boreal vanilla! Crafted from tiny sweet clover flowers carefully hand-sorted with tweezers, our artisanal extract offers complex and captivating notes of vanilla, almonds, and fresh hay, similar to tonka bean.

Sweet clover is a very common yet often unnoticed plant that you have likely encountered without realizing it. If you inhale the extract with your eyes closed, you will catch the scent of late summer evenings, when this nectar-producing plant perfumes the warm countryside air.

An exclusive creation by Gourmet Sauvage, sweet clover extract will elevate your pastries and cocktails into unique and flavourful creations.

Sweet clover extract, our local vanilla

We came upon sweet clover a bit by accident. Its wonderful smell followed us every time we harvested in fields. Our research brought us to discover that sweet clover contained a molecule very much like vanillin contained in vanilla beans. The project to create a northern vanilla was born.

It took three years of research and experimentation to come up with a quality product. Harvested in July, the tiny flowers are cleaned with tweezers before we proceed with the recipe.

The result is an exquisite product, contemporary and yet well anchored in our terroir. It is purely natural, a creation of what is most delicate and surprising in the wild. The recipe is simple: unique products, close observation and a touch of creativity.
