Special Features:

This French single malt stands out for its three-stage maturation in different types of wood. The whisky first matures in old Cognac casks, then in new chestnut casks and finally in chestnut casks that previously held Cognac. French barley provides the foundation, while nutty, fruity and spicy notes, leather and a light, fresh character shape its profile.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: The nose evokes an autumn morning, with aromas of walnut shells, fresh chestnuts, leather and old furniture.
  • Palate: The whisky is polished, light and fresh on the palate, with roasted fruit, chestnut and cashew nuts shaping the flavour.
  • Finish: The finish is long and fresh, with medlar, kumquat, clove and cumin.

Distillery/Bottler:

Maison Bache-Gabrielsen was founded in 1905 and specialises in Cognac. For this whisky, the house applies its experience with Cognac casks to a single malt made from French barley and complements this with maturation in both new chestnut casks and chestnut casks previously used for Cognac. Bache-Gabrielsen bottles and releases the whisky itself.
