From the Distillery
- “Our 5-malt house recipe with a unique finish, bottled at cask strength. This batch of spirit originally filled into a Cooper’s Select barrel (light toast/heavy char) and transferred into an undoubtedly rich, but somewhat unknown fortified wine cask. Pineau des Charentes comes from a region that includes Cognac, and is produced from the same grape varieties as the famous brandy. The production process of Pineau des Charentes involves adding eau-de-vie to grape must and maturing. The Pineau influence showcases an atmospheric floral sweetness on our familiar base spirit.”
- Tasting Notes
- Nose: “Walnuts, berry syrup, waffle cone, jasmine tea”
- Palate: “Fresh cherry , light maple syrup, buckwheat biscuit”
