Aged in upcycled French oak barrels, this whiskey showcases the expertise of our master coopers, whose craft has been refined over decades. Each barrel is carefully hand-shaved to reopen the grain of the wood and allow it to breathe and exchange with the whisky. The barrels are meticulously selected for their noble wood, having previously housed high-end wines and exceptional whiskies, ensuring only those with the finest qualities are chosen for this process, with full traceability from tree to glass.
The 90-minute open-flame toasting is a precise dance of fire and wood, releasing delicate aromas of vanilla, toasted nuts, and gentle spice. These flavors mingle with the warmth of oak, transporting you to a place of quiet refinement—like sitting by a crackling hearth returning to the chateau which matured the barrel itself. Every sip reveals the care and expertise behind the process, offering a rich, complex experience that lingers long after the glass is empty.
