Aged for a sophisticated 42 to 47 months, this meticulously handcrafted Belgian whisky captures the essence of the Hesbaye region. Distilled in former Caperdonich Pot stills from 1898, it matures in 1st fill Bourbon casks made of American white oak (Quercus alba). Committed to sustainable and fair trade farming, this unpeated expression boasts a natural hue, free from artificial coloring. With an unwavering dedication to authenticity, the whisky undergoes no chill filtering and is expertly bottled at the distillery, ensuring a genuine reflection of its craftsmanship and origin.

Etsu is one of the first Japanese gins on the market. Etsu means "PLEASURE" in Japanese. This gin was developed by the Asahikawa distillery in Hokkaido, following the story of an ancestral Asian recipe that requires various herbs, spices, and citrus fruits, some of which can only be found in Asia (berries, peppers, citrus fruits...). The distinctive feature of Etsu gin lies in the persistent presence of orange and yuzu peels, the latter being a yellow citrus fruit very popular in Asia.
