Glann Ar Mor Porto Tawny Finish is an unpeated Breton single malt, produced by Celtic Whisky Distillerie, located in Pleubian, on the north coast of Brittany. Distilled from "Maris Otter" barley, it benefits from an initial maturation in bourbon casks, followed by a nine-month refinement in 500-liter Tawny Port casks. This double maturation gives the whisky delicious aromas of raspberry and cocoa, while preserving the saline and iodine notes characteristic of its marine terroir. Bottled at 53.5% cask strength, this whisky is offered in a limited edition of 294 hand-numbered bottles.

Description

Brand History:

Created in 1997, Celtic Whisky Distillerie is one of the first French distilleries to dedicate itself to the production of whiskies. In Pleubian, on the north coast of Brittany, just a few meters from the sea, the oceanic climate gives the whiskies a unique maritime character. A pioneer of French whisky, the distillery brings together specific features that guarantee whisky production in the purest artisanal tradition: open-flame heating, slow distillation, the presence of traditional equipment such as two small "Pot Still" stills and wooden fermenters, and, of course, aging by the seaside. Thanks to its commitment to quality, it has become one of the most awarded in France.


Production Method:


For this Breton whisky with a Port cask finish, the choice fell on a Tawny Port, a fortified wine which, after fermentation, is aged for 5 years in 500-liter barrels, giving it its tawny hue (hence its name) and beautiful aromas. As always, the acquisition of ex-wine or spirits casks is a difficult step because the quality of the barrels is paramount in order to obtain a great whisky! Then begins the long game of patience that is aging, so that the alchemy between our Glann Ar Mor and the ex-Port cask is revealed.
