- Description
- Maison Benjamin Kuentz's lightly peated expression undergoes a triple finish in Cognac, vermouth, and ginger brandy casks, layering complex spices, stone fruit, and gentle smoke. The sequential cask influence builds aromatic depth unusual for single malt, with herbal and ginger notes complementing the base spirit. This intricate profile makes it ideal as an aperitif or for those seeking bold, multi-dimensional French whisky.
