The Crème de Cassis de Merlet has held the status of Geographical Indication since 2015, recognizing the unique expertise developed over 30 years in the cultivation of blackcurrants and their transformation into liqueur. The complete mastery of the cultivation and harvesting of the berries, their ripeness, and their transformation by the Merlet family, combined with a high concentration of macerated fruits, are the keys to the extreme intensity and complexity achieved.
TASTING NOTES:
NOSE: Extremely powerful, with ripe blackcurrant. Upon aeration, also notes of spices, mint, and black tea.
PALATE: Its thickness reflects the maximum concentration of fruits. The blackcurrant immediately coats the palate. Perfect balance between sugar, acidity, and alcohol.
FINISH: Almost endless, reminiscent of traditional jams.

Produced from 100% French malted barley. Double distilled in the Charentais abysses of the Merlet distillery, then matured in association with new and old French oak barrels. The result is a delicious, round, fruity and floral whisky with spicy notes. "Coperies" means "harvest" in an ancient local French dialect.

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.

The Crème de Pêche de Vigne Merlet is made from this very particular variety, once cultivated along the vineyards, small in size and with red and white flesh.
Our malt is crafted slowly and is matured at the distillery in traditional dunnage warehouses on earthen floors. We're proud of our heritage and have used traditional methods since we rolled our first barrels back in 1790. And yet we're not afraid to tinker with tradition if it serves to improve our product. Our single malt is the perfect mix of nature and nurture and we believe in quality above all else.
