Alfred Giraud Voyage, 48%

Price: 185 Issue: Summer 2022 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: French Whisky


An exploratory blend of two single malts matured in sauternes and French robinia casks and finished in cognac casks. Delightful, fresh, and lilting with orchard fruits, floral notes, gooseberry fool, chantilly cream, sliced grape, crisp barley, and fresh apple peel, balanced with light oak and a sprinkle of spice. Flavors of black currant, honey, russet apple, and pepper before it succumbs to the cognac's influence. Preferred this one with water. (405 bottles for the U.S.)
