Merlet Chevessac Extra Vieux Pineau des Charentes

Yerba mate tea is an iconic beverage of Argentina, which is why we wanted to include it in our Gran Chaco Argentina rum. For this version of the rum, we drew inspiration from the nature and lush landscapes of Argentina. The patterns on our bottle trace the path of nature, at the heart and source of our production: from the earth, where the rich flora of the Gran Chaco is rooted, to the sky. The design also evokes serenity and the call of the night: through the deep blue of the bottle, it reflects the sun setting behind the mountains and the phases of the moon and sun.

The Tomatin 18 Year Old is a truly world class malt.
Matured in traditional oak casks and first fill Oloroso Sherry butts, honey and soft oak flavours develop into a hint of dark chocolate with a citrusbite before a sustained sweet and slightly dry finish.

The rich honey flavour adds a sweetness to the flavour profile, the wonderful hand-picked calamansi lime contributes distinctive citrus notes while the fiery local pepper, siling labuyo adds a touch of heat and spice.

Many years ago, they filled new make Finlaggan into Rioja Red Wine Hogsheads. Coming from the Rioja region within the Basque country of Spain, these Hogsheads have given the signature heavily peated Finlaggan an extra layer of rich mouth coating red berried fruit flavours. The result is a truly mouthwatering sweet and smoky dram to savour. The extrac-tion from the oak casks has given this whisky a beautifully rich natural coppery rose gold colour.

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.
