Carefully selected grains are fermented and then distilled in copper pot stills, which enhances the extraction of aromas. Maturation takes place in American and European oak casks, resulting in unparalleled aromatic richness. Each cask is meticulously chosen, ensuring that the whisky develops notes of vanilla, caramel, and dried fruit over the years. This painstaking process contributes to the creation of a remarkably complex whisky.
