This is a whiskey distilled at Bertrand that is matured in Domaine La Tour Vieille casks. This Domaine produces Banyuls wines. This is another 100% Alsace French distilled product. More information on DTV can be found here.
Plums, malt, sticky toffee and dessert pudding. Cocoa, honey, creme brulee. Really malt forward. Faintly musty.
Sweet, but thin mouthfeel. Some faint heat. Lactic, sour fruits, honey and plums. Some grape influence and with time in the glass, there is almost a mild smoke presence. Some faint pepper.
Medium length with some heat and a musty fruity profile.
Rich but almost too meaty / musty / malty. I think this could use a little more barrel time to balance out those notes. Not bad, but could use a little work. Interesting, all the same, though.
