Light gold color. Aromas and flavors of pine sap and dusty lemon, honey grains, vanilla, and bosc pear, apricot, and cherry popsicle stick with a velvety, tangy, dry medium body and a peppery, intriguing, medium-long finish with nuances of honey, lemon, and green tea, cracked black pepper, and eucalyptus. Resonates with the smells of honey, citrus, and an Alpine meadow.

The French drink more Scotch whisky than anyone else and today, there are a few distilleries, primarily in Brittany, that craft a different style of whiskey. These are not peaty examples with notes of iodine as in Scotland, but rather elegant styles with notes of apricot, toffee and orange marmalade with a gentle spicy finish. The best are quite elegant and stylish and would be fine sipped in a small snifter or mixed in refined cocktails.
