<tc>Le Breuil - Whisky Single Malt - Peated Finish</tc>

Key words: Peaty / Spicy / Fruity / Length

The spirit: This delicious French Single Malt Whiskey from the house of Breuil gives pride of place to peat thanks to aging in oak barrels previously belonging to the Scottish distillery Laphroaig, a specialist in the genre. Here, the peaty aspect is therefore intense but also perfectly balanced, never falling into heaviness and rather evoking ashy notes. These blend with fruity aromas (grapefruit, peach) as well as a touch of pepper. On the palate, a silky woodiness bringing vanilla and cinnamon blends gracefully throughout. The length is particularly heady, making you immediately want to return. Superb precision and character!

The brand: Built at the beginning of the 16th century, the Château du Breuil is a place steeped in history. Indeed, since the French Revolution, several owners have succeeded one another and different economic activities have taken over the place: linen spinning, cheese factory, chocolate factory, cider factory, etc. However, it is indeed a Calvados distillery which has occupied the premises since 1954. The property today has 42 hectares on which more than 800 varieties of apples grow (sweet, bitter, bittersweet, sour). After belonging to the Swiss Diwisa group for around thirty years, the company returned to the French flag in April 2020 and extended its activity to other spirits: whiskeys (distilled on site) and rums (refined on site) make now part of the range and are of a superb standard. Today, the brand's influence is international and honors French know-how.
