Exceptional spirits

RØØF24 STAR is the first part of the exploration of the influence of the finish on the taste of our whiskies. RØØF24 STAR is a 100% malted single rye, blended from several vintages and the Hautes Glaces’ two emblematic climates: Gabert and Vulson. A true backbone with a strong character, this matrix comes from a blend of several rye distillates, all aged in Cognac casks. This cuvée will serve as the benchmark for the three other cuvées to follow, all of which have undergone a second maturation (finish) in wine casks.  Peppery, greasy and a burst of grain energy, RØØF24 STAR is a Hautes Glaces signature.

RØØF24 TRIANGLE is the second exploration of the influence of the finish on the taste of our whiskies. RØØF24 TRIANGLE is a 100% malted single rye, blended from several vintages and the Hautes Glaces’ two emblematic climates: Gabert and Vulson. After a long maturation in Cognac casks, our rye was then refined for five months in two casks that had contained a red wine from the Côtes de Duras. Normally we prefer white wine casks, but the absence of dogmatism when it comes to taste exploration can lead to some wonderful surprises. And this is one of them! A successful and harmonious combination red and rye, these two worlds melt powerfully together in your glass.

RØØF24 SQUARE is the third part of the exploration of the influence of the finish on the taste of our whiskies. RØØF24 SQUARE is a 100% malted single rye, blended from several vintages and the Hautes Glaces' two emblematic climates: Gabert and Vulson. Initially aged in Cognac casks, this rye whisky was then refined for the last five months, in optimal comfort, in two casks of yellow wine, a sign of our particular affection for the Jura terroir and its wines, which are both surprising and original, to say the least.

RØØF24 ROUND is the fourth part of the exploration of the influence of the finish on the taste of our whiskies. RØØF24 ROUND is a single rye, 100% malted, coming from the blend of several vintages and the two emblematic climates of the Domain: Gabert and Vulson. After a long maturation in Cognac casks, our rye was then finished for five months in ex-Sauternes casks. The South-West of Bordeaux, the Sauternes terroir in the spotlight, a first for Hautes Glaces. Rye and Sauternes, why not? We'll find our rye strenghtening up the mellow Sauternes. And the tenderness of the Sauternes cradling the energy of rye. Action!

R15D24 SQUARE is the first part of the exploration into how the degree of balance impacts the taste of our whiskies. R15D24 is a parcel whisky made from a single plot of rye (Caroas variety) from the Gabert climate, harvested in 2015. Aged for 8 years in a single cask, the 254, an ex-yellow wine cask, it was then divided into three batches, each worked in reduction around different degrees of balance, each revealing a singular facet of this whisky of character, a clean, tasty and legitimate expression.

Aged for 8 years in a single cask, the 254, an ex-yellow wine cask, it was then divided into three batches, each worked in reduction around different degrees of balance, each revealing a singular facet of this whisky of character, a clean, tasty and legitimate expression.

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).
