BASTILLE 1789 Whisky Blend
BASTILLE 1789 Blend is composed of 50% malted barley and 50% raw grain. It benefited from double distillation in a Charentais still and was aged in small batches in barrels having contained prestigious eaux-de-vie and appellation wines (Cognac, Sauternes) in order to give it a unique and complex character.
40% vol.
TASTING NOTES
ROBE : Superb limpid bright gold color, golden yellow honey blond reflections.
NOSE : Pleasant bouquet of aromas of orange marmalade, dried apricots and gingerbread which give it softness and roundness. The finesse of the malt is present but without dominating.
MOUTH : Fresh attack, a comfortable mid-palate with a lot of delicacy. Dry, slightly fruity, some notes of orange zest and candied fruit. The finish is straight, intense and without heaviness, mineral with light notes of spices.
TASTING ADVICE
As an aperitif pure or on ice, in a cocktail, as a food pairing, with a cigar.
