Notes

B15C23 TRIANGLE is the first of the twin expressions in this new exploration. Epistémè B15C23 are two Single Cask made from a single plot of barley harvested in 2015 in the "climat Vulson" . Two distillates made in the same week from the same raw material, the same malted barley. The B15C23 exploration focuses here on the influence of the cask. On the journey, starting from an identical place, that these two beverages will have taken during their maturation. Placed in two separate casks when coming out of the still (a sixth-fill old Hautes Glaces's whisky cask and a refill white wine Crozes-Hermitage cask), this new Epistémè diptych will take you to regions both near and far... two limited editions to explore (487 and 438 bottles).

Creamy Floral Spring-like Direct Cereal

Tasting advices

Enjoy it on its own or as part of a comparative experience with its exploration twin B15C23 ● . It's the perfect end to a traditional year-end festive meal. The logical conclusion to a feast of Bresse poultry, pike with beurre blanc, cheese ravioli and praline tart.

DEEP GOLD

Nose

Very lightly vanilla-flavoured, frankly floral (hawthorn, iris and lilac), this is a promising garden! There's no doubt that it had a maturation in white wine Crozes-Hermitage barrels. A vinous, springtime nose!

Mouth

B15C23 ▲ is warm and lively. The generous imprint of Marsanne is immediately apparent. Rich, round, creamy and nutty, it doesn't coat the mouth, it caresses it. This whisky has a sense of nuance! Strong, refined bitters envelop it all, for a...

Finish

The cereal flavour reminds us that this is a Hautes Glaces bottle. An aesthetic that has always been asserted and affirmed. A traditional spirit, Rhodanian through and through! As the year ends and the meal draws to a close, the light won't be coming from above, but from your glass!

B15C23 ▲ is a plot whisky, a Single Cask made from our winter barleys grown organically and regeneratively on the "climat Vulson", Hautes Glaces farm land. These 2-row barleys were harvested in 2015, malted over the winter and distilled in the first week of March 2016. The distillate obtained was placed in an ex-barrel of white wine Crozes-Hermitage (marsanne-roussanne).

During its 7 years of ageing, this twin expression of B15C23 ● has benefited from an exceptional cask from the Rhône Valley. Here, the meeting of terroirs resonates : from the eaux de vie of the Trièves mountains to the Rhone plain of Isère, a delicate marriage is woven that will remind to the Hautes Glaces "aficionados" of our cuvée CONFLUENS or & MAXIMUS.
