Version Française - La Piautre 2018 - 56%
Version Française is a La Maison du Whisky négoce range, made up of French spirits. The aim is to favour short circuits and encourage local consumption.
La Fabrique des Bières d'Anjou, also known as La Piautre, is a French malt distillery brewery nestled on the banks of the Loire. The factory works with three farmers located within a 20 km radius to produce local, artisanal whisky. In 2013, it integrated a malting plant and began producing whisky. First with the help of a distiller and a COYAC still, then, since 2017, with their own Charentais still. Resulting from a long fermentation and a double distillation over a wood fire, La Piautre 2018 is a Single Malt smoked with Irish peat. Matured first in two separate casks - a 100-litre cask and a 225-litre cask, each containing wine before being sanded and then re-roasted - the whisky then finished maturing in a single cask that previously contained Coteaux of Aubance wine.
