Whisky Breton Ed Gwenn Aged in Burgundy barrels
- 0.70 L
This barley whisky is the result of a blend of Brittany and Burgundy. It exhibits all the characteristics of Ed Gwenn, with notes of exotic fruit, passion fruit, and lychee. Aging in Burgundy casks previously containing Chardonnay gives it structure, a lovely sweetness, as well as subtle mineral and white flower notes. This whisky is a gem in a very limited edition.
The Menhirs Distillery was officially founded in 1986 by Guy Le Lay in PLOMELIN in southern Finistère. It was on this land steeped in history, with the presence of 5,000-year-old menhirs, that his ancestors began their adventure in 1921 as traveling distillers. Guy Le Lay, previously a mathematics teacher, obtained the status of professional distiller in 1986 and developed his Pommeau de Bretagne that same year. In 1989, he launched Lambig de Bretagne, in memory of the cider brandy of the western Bretons. His desire for novelty and the meeting with an international expert allowed him to innovate by distilling a Breton cereal, buckwheat. This will lead to the Eddu Silver whisky in 2022. Since then, his sons Erwan, Kevin and Loig have been perpetuating this know-how, developing the range with variations of EDDU, and the creation of L'Ed Gwenn.

NEZNotes fruitées de poire et de pomme Granny Smith. Le profil exotique (banane flambée, litchi, ananas) reste bien présent. Lorsque le verre se réchauffe, des arômes de bonbons arlequins et de réglisses se dégagent.
-
BOUCHEOnctueuse et ronde avec une belle fraîcheur. Le cépage chardonnay apporte de la structure au produit. La bouche est fidèle au nez avec ses notes fruitées, puis s'ajoutent une touche minérale accompagnée de notes subtiles de fleurs blanches.

FINALECette cuvée limitée nous offre plus de structure et plus de gourmandise que la cuvée ED GWENN traditionnelle.
