Cohobé Libération French Single Malt Whisky (2024) 70cl
Libération is the generous whisky par excellence. A precise redistillation technique, combined with "custom" aging, produces a rounded whisky that will find its full expression after aging in fine-grained French oak barrels.
This name " Liberation " refers to the ability to fully express all the aromas of barley grain and oak wood in perfect harmony. It is a gourmet whisky, with rich and generous aromas, dazzling with nuances, for the greatest pleasure of amateurs.
A high-quality French barley
There is no great whisky without a good grain at the start. For Cohobé, we work with the best cereal growers, not far from the Cognac region, where we make our whisky. France has always been a land of cereals: the Gauls perfectly mastered the cultivation of barley. In this, Cohobé is the centuries-old heritage of the art of French grain. Malting is also carried out in France, as is the entire Cohobé production.
The art of double distillation
Like Cognac, Cohobé whisky is a product of double distillation in a small alambic or still. It’s an imperative condition to guarantee the highest quality. After the first pass-through, the brouilli (or the first distillation) of Cohobé, is passed through the alambic again to obtain a perfect concentration of aromas. But that is not enough to obtain a great whisky: one still has to carefully select which part of the brouilli will be redistilled. In the case of Cohobé, depending on the desired eau-de-vie profile, we vary this selection while constantly searching for the best quality, even if it means keeping only a small part of what was initially distilled.
TASTING NOTES
Colour Golden yellow, slightly amber. Clear and shiny.
Nose: Woody and mineral notes harmonise together and gradually reveal rich floral, fruity and spicy scents, punctuated with roasted and balsamic notes.
Palate: A complex richness, a beautiful opulence where generous notes with fruity tones dominate. The accord is well structured by the wood offering a powerful, supple and persistent finish. Libération evokes fields of cereals heated by the sun, subtle pastries and candied fruits but also more autumnal and spicy notes.
