Armorik Classic is the result of maturation in bourbon casks of different ages. Smooth, unctuous and rich, it highlights the expertise of their master blender and the quality of maturation on the Breton coast.
Made from organic French barley and distilled in their traditional pot stills, it shows their desire to create an exceptional single malt that reflects the Breton character : a rich and fruity whisky, respectful of the environment.
Gold medalist at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and silver medalist at the International Spirits Challenge 2021 and International Wine & Spirit Competition 2021.
MATURATION:Matured in bourbon casks
NOSE:Intense and complex. Spicy cereals are followed by exotic fruits notes (mango, passion fruit)
PALATE:Attack on fresh fruits (peach and apricot) then beautiful sweetness with vanilla notes. Light toasted notes accompanied the fatness and power of the whisky.
FINISH:Nice length, lively and warm, with a hint of iodine.
