A deeply mature rye whiskey with a grassy aroma and fresh notes of aged Rhum Agricole. On the palate, the rich rye is balanced by the nutty, oxidative character of madeira, brightened by the fruity splash of apricot brandy. The finish reveals the whiskey’s signature maritime minerality.
Tasting Profile:
Neat
Appearance: Rich golden straw
Nose: A showcase of exotic spices—caraway, fenugreek, dill—and the bready depth of rye toast and roasted taro. Rhum Agricole barrels enhance grassy notes of cucumber peel and bark mulch, while the oak brings out cigar tobacco, coffee, and cinnamon.
Palate: Oily texture with peanut, coconut, and tea tree oil notes. Creamy soy milk and cocoa butter evolve into bright lemonade and nutty sunflower seed flavors, thanks to the madeira barrels, with hints of grapefruit peel and verjus.
Finish: The apricot brandy casks bring out passionfruit, mirabelle plum, and banana peel, followed by rye and mineral notes of chalk dust, flint, and cedar smoke.
With Water
Nose: Fresh coastal breeze, maraschino liqueur, cloudberry, and green apple.
Palate: Sweeter with marmalade, burnt marshmallows, and roasted chestnut, alongside woodsy notes of balsam, wild mint, and raspberry leaf.
