Blended Whisky ~ Cap A Pie ~ 45% ~ 700mL
Launched in 2018, this blended whisky from Michel Couvreur is a first edition but a definite classic in the making. It has a similar blend as “The Unique” whisky but has a larger proportion of malt whisky which makes it more complex in character. Pleasant aromas of Iodine and nuts aromas are complemented by hints of vanilla and flowers. The rich, structured malt flavors that co-mingle with tropical fruits lead to a long, medium-dry toasty finish. Delightful to drink, it is perfect as an aperitif.

Winery
Michel Couvreur had a very personal, and truly revolutionary vision of what whisky should be: more than terroir, more than the distiller’s touch, it was the maturing in oak casks that truly helped the grain spirit become whisky. From 1978 on, having settled in the French region of Burgundy, he decided to make it his life’s work and to dedicate his research to a process which he once compared to cross-fertilisation.
Michel Couvreur passed away in 2013; his son-in-law Cyril Deschamps and his cellar master Jean-Arnaud Frantzen, with the invaluable help of Michel’s devoted wife Marthe and his daughter Alexandra, follow to the letter the philosophy and the motto of the house: Virtute et Opera.
