Description

Made exclusively with buckwheat, this unique Breton whisky is produced in Brittany, France, at Distillerie des Menhirs. Founded by Guy le Lay in 1986, the distillery began making whisky in 1998, launching Eddu Silver in 2002 as the world's first buckwheat whisky. It is crafted from 80% unmalted and 20% malted buckwheat, distilled twice, and aged for 5 years in French oak casks that previously held Cognac. This expression is characterized by its fruity and balanced character, fleshy and unctuous.

Nose
Characteristic honey and wood spices as well as touches of fragrant greenery. Intense, complex, with fruity notes of citrus, grilled hazelnut, and floral scents of rose and heather.
Palate
Tinned peaches, vanilla, oaky buckwheat, somewhat vinous with cinnamon. Distinctive fruity notes of apple, orange peel, and candied apricot, evolving onto spices and refined oaky flavors.
Finish
Nutty beeswax polish. Pleasant fresh sensation, fruity and balanced, creamy, and velvety.
