43%
0.7L
Intensity
A single malt from one of Burgundy’s finest whisky houses that will delight your palate with its aromas of coffee and yellow fruits
More infoA blend of whiskies of different ages, aged in sherry barrels, it develops a charming nose of dried flowers. To taste, it is power that comes to the fore with an imposing fruitiness and notes of butter and cacao. The smoky finish offers beautiful length. The texture is unctuous, balancing between the maturity of the whiskies it’s made up of and the youth of others.
About the Producer Michel Couvreur
Once a producer and merchant of Burgundian wines, Michel Couvreur set himself up in Scotland during the 1960s and took to seriously studying the processes of whisky making. In time, he decided to specialise in the selling of unfamiliar, artisanal whisky. He favoured maturation in sherry, porto and sometimes yellow wine barrels. But the particularity of his whisky is in the cellar found in Burgundy's Côte d'Or. The large choice of barrels and the moving of these between humid and dry spaces means that the whiskies are powerful with harmonious roundness. Since he passed away in 2013, Michel Couvreur has been replaced by his son Cyril Deschamps who has vowed to maintain the family philosophy ‘Virtute et Opera': Strength and Work.
