Epicurean Rivesaltes Single Cask 48%

The Epicurean Wood Finish series continues with the launch of The Epicurean Rivesaltes Finished Limited Edition. In the passionate belief that the cask can give the spirit up to 70% of its flavour, the Limited Edition Wood Series has seen Douglas Laing tirelessly journey the globe, searching for the finest casks in which to finish the Epicurean spirit.

After initially maturing in traditional oak casks for a number of years, they finished this limited edition bottling in a single hand-selected Rivesaltes Wine Single Cask from the Languedoc-Roussillon Wine region of France.
Bottled at 48% ABV and proudly without colouring or chill-filtration
There are TWO single casks released, each yielding 546 bottles

Tasting Notes:
The nose is sweetly honeyed and gristy, showing sugared cereal and pear drops. The nutty palate warms to milk chocolate, hazelnuts and citrus fruits, running to a finish that bursts with crystallised fruits, prunes, cocoa, orange peel and almond.
