Editor Choice: More than a whisky, a state of mind. Bellevoye bears the name of a road, the least travelled by, a path that one barely sees and that carries the promise of dawn, a destination shaped like a dream.Jean and Alexandre designed this dream, placing their faith at the very heart of it, faith in the strength of their culture and country, France. They have made this dream come true with a crazy and audacious bet. It was born from a will to create, innovate, and push the boundaries: producing a great French whisky, with all of our skills and know-how, our terroirs and our raw materials. They have built this dream though strong values and the wish to establish a virtuous circle around their whisky. Some stories are meant to be told, dreams must become true, otherwise they are doomed to remain no more than beautiful ideas.
The primary rearing phase, in each of the three distilleries of origin, lasted between three and eight years, in oak barrels. After blending, this Unpeated Triple Malt has spent six months in the Bellevoye winery in Charente where it has enjoyed a luxurious secondary breeding in Sauternes barrels from a famous Cru Classé. These barrels give the whiskey the sweet aromas characteristic of these great sweet wines – apricot, acacia honey, orange marmalade, spices, vanilla … – which mingle with the more classic notes of dried fruits and toasty biscuits. Rich in lees, the casks also nourish the Bellevoye Blanc liquid, more opulent, more unctuous, more sublime, with a nice spicy freshness on the finish.
