Category: French Whisky

Date Tasted: 5/23/2024

Straw color. Aromas and flavors of peach salt water taffy, mango Hi Chew, jackfruit, and jasmine tea with a satiny, soft, dry thin body and a warming, interesting, medium-length finish manifesting accents of gummi peach rings, over heated green jasmine mango tea, orange pith, and ginger root. Very light and fruity with tropical notes and vivid floral tones; flavor-wise somewhere on the spectrum between Whiskey and Brandy.

About

French Whisky

The French drink more Scotch whisky than anyone else and today, there are a few distilleries, primarily in Brittany, that craft a different style of whiskey. These are not peaty examples with notes of iodine as in Scotland, but rather elegant styles with notes of apricot, toffee and orange marmalade with a gentle spicy finish. The best are quite elegant and stylish and would be fine sipped in a small snifter or mixed in refined cocktails.
