La Piautre 2019 Petit Lot
This second small batch in the Version Française range has been distilled by La Fabrique des Bières d’Anjou, also known as La Piautre. A French brewery-malting-distillery nestled on the banks of the Loire, the factory is committed to producing artisanal, local whisky. It works with three farmers located within a 20 km radius. In 2013, it integrated a malting plant and began producing whisky. First with the help of an itinerant distiller and a COYAC still, then, since 2017 with their own Charentais-type still.
A blend of two juices that have been aged in turn in ex-Porter, Cognac and Bourbon casks, this cuvée stands out for its fresh expression and velvety mouthfeel.
