Maille is one of the most prestigious and historic names in French culinary tradition, originally founded in 1747 by Antoine-Claude Maille. The brand quickly became a favorite of royal courts across Europe, including those of King Louis XV of France and the emperors of Russia. Known for its sophisticated mustard blends and high-quality vinegars, Maille has maintained its reputation for over 275 years by adhering to traditional craft methods while expanding its global reach.
Today, the brand is part of the extensive international portfolio of Unilever. While it originated in Dijon, France, and much of its premium manufacturing remains centered in the Burgundy region of France, the global demand for the product means manufacturing and bottling can occur in various facilities worldwide under Unilever's oversight. The Fins Gourmets line, specifically, is a grainy mustard variety that emphasizes the brand's heritage of texture and flavor depth.
As the ultimate owner, Unilever manages the brand's distribution and marketing globally. The products are often imported by local Unilever subsidiaries or specialized high-end food distributors in markets outside of Europe. Maille continues to be seen as a flagship for French gourmet culture on the international stage.
