A Blended Scotch Whisky made from a mix of 40% of different malt whiskies, rich and fruity. A unique blend with distinctive flavours, rich yet soft fruitiness, a natural pink wine tinge to its kilted body, the modern design of the art of Ashley Cook drawn from Scotland’s history. A whisky with strength and character yet with a feminine heart, mirroring the portrait of Mary Stuart, Queen of Scotland and Queen of France through her marriage to Francois II of France as a young princess.
The Longueteau 50° agricultural white rum is made from two varieties of sugarcane, the "blue" cane and the "red" cane. These varieties have been selected and are recognized for their aromatic intensity. Of superior quality, this rum stands out for the finesse of its aromas. It is best enjoyed in a ti-punch.
Merlet C² Lemon & Cognac combines the expertise of the Merlet family as liquorists and distillers, and plays on the classic complementarity between cognac and citrus fruits, here yellow lemon and lime.
The casks numbered 49541 and 49542 have been gracefully resting in warehouse 6 since they were filled on September 21, 1978, gently and slowly maturing the precious spirit they contain. After thirty years, the spirit was transferred into the finest Spanish first-fill Oloroso Sherry casks and was aged for an additional decade under the careful and enduring care of Tomatin distillery's custodians.
Eau de Vigne is a blend of different unaged eaux-de-vie. It’s a throwback to the “blanche” (unaged grape eau-de-vie) tradition – once very much enjoyed on its own. The success of aged grape spirits such as Cognac and Armagnac have little by little pushed this noble white spirit out of the limelight.
The Portuguese Collection exhibits the unique influence imparted by different types of Portuguese Wine casks in an exceptional showcase.
The apples are mixed, crushed and pressed. The apple juice is fermented right out to give cider to be distilled. Double distillation is carried out 6 months after the fermentation has taken place. The first distillation gives the "petite eau" at 30% by volume and it is the second distillation, that of the "petite eau" which gives the Calvados.
Aging: Two years minimum. In toasted 400 l (88 imperial gallon) oak barrels, 50% of which are new.
