$140.00

In 2023, the Ninkasi brewery-distillery, established in 1997 in Lyon, opened a new production facility in Tarare, located in the Rhône region.

The facility, set in a UNESCO Global Geopark, is equipped with a pair of traditional Charentais pot stills and two new vacuum Honoré stills.

This edition, distilled in 2018, has been aged in Tokay casks—a sweet white wine from Hungary. With exceptional richness and indulgence, this whisky reveals beautiful yellow and orange tones, complemented by oxidative, honeyed, and exotic notes.

Description

Tasting Notes


Colour
: Dark amber

Nose : Rich, ample. The luscious aromas of walnut, apricot, and cherry recall the world of Tokay wines and Jura straw wines. Oriental and honeyed scents emerge with aeration, reminiscent of biting into Eastern pastries (makrouts, zlabias).

Palate : Dense, oxidative. Star anise notes introduce a vibrant palate, unfolding one by one into herbaceous tones (licorice), spicy accents (nutmeg, grey pepper), oxidative notes (raisin), and fruity hints (strawberry, melon). With aeration, a slight spiciness invigorates the tasting.

Finish : Generous, complex. Notes of raisin, cranberries, and yellow wine echo the oxidative character of the mid-palate. A hint of honeyed tea adds warmth and indulgence to the finish. The aftertaste reveals fine tannins with a slight bitterness.
