Sortilège Classic 70 CL

Amber color with golden reflections, brilliant.
The classic expression of an 18-year-old Armagnac in this multifaceted nose. The aging process brings spices and rancio (walnut, undergrowth, honey, toasted bread). The initial fruitiness has evolved into prunes and fig jam. All of this creates a complex nose that evolves with aeration.
The present tannins remain round and well-integrated. The palate is rich, even opulent. This provides a natural sweetness around fruity aromas of citrus, honey, and jams.
Beautiful length.

Issuing from a meticulous selection of Caribbean rums, Gun’s Bell is blended in our cellars in Chevanceaux following a traditional artisanal method. It then undergoes a 4 to 6-month aging process in oak barrels (depending on the weather) to develop woody notes, vanilla, dried nuts, roasted almonds, and smoky accents. Gun’s Bell reveals powerful and indulgent aromas, releasing an incomparable flow of flavors with both fruity and smoky notes.

Grappa obtained from two varieties of white grape marc from Trentino: Gewürztraminer and Moscato.

For their Merlet VSOP Cognac, Gilles and his sons selected and blended eaux-de-vie from different regions of the cognac appellation, to ensure consistent quality. The eaux-de-vie were aged for at least four years. Most of the Cognacs selected for this blend are from Fins Bois ‘crus’, famed for their fruitiness and their capacity to mature fast when barrel-aged.

Crafted from a combination of the finest single malts from Speyside and Islay, including old GlenAllachie. The second batch of Lum Reek 10 Year Old is the perfect balance of peat and rich, fruity character and bottled at natural cask strength of 55.8% , no chill filtering for maximum flavor.

A true flagship of the Foursquare distillery: Doorly's XO Gold is an exceptional rum, aged between six and twelve years in bourbon casks and then finished for several months in Oloroso sherry casks.

This double aging process gives this rum remarkable complexity and depth, appealing to both whiskey and cognac enthusiasts.

Maguey tepeztate (or tepextate) is an Agave marmorata. It produces beautiful quiotes at the end of it’s life that flower a rich yellow before turning to seed. Tepeztate takes as many as 25 years to mature in the wild, and sustainability efforts are needed in order to keep mezcal production of this agave in the future. Despite all odds it seems to flourish best on the sides of steep rocky cliffs. In certain areas of Puebla there is a smaller sub-varietal of the Agave marmorata that grows with lateral white stripes across the pencas. These agave can go by the name pichomel, pichorra, or pizorra depending on location.
