- Description
- Distilled in 2016 and matured in a second-fill Saint Joseph wine cask, this Hautes Glaces single malt bridges Alpine terroir with wine influence at 55.3% ABV. The nose shows lilies and honeyed stone fruit, while the palate layers rich malt, white grapes, black pepper, and raspberry with mineral precision. A French whisky that uses wine cask finishing to add complexity rather than mask it.
