🍷Eng And Fr .  The kind of bottle that tells you: “Relax, you’re in the right place.” .  Togouchi Rum Cask Finish Japanese Whisky 43% ABV. Aged in bourbon barrels and finished for 18 months in Jamaican rum casks. Sakurao Distillery. Distributed by @whiskiesdumonde .  👀: In the glass, the color is gold, almost amber, like a ray of sunshine that has passed through an old wooden cask. Bright, clean, crisp . 👃: First nose: vanilla, brown sugar, ripe banana. Then it gently evolves towards more exotic notes: roasted pineapple, molasses, candied orange peel. You can clearly taste the Jamaican rum cask influence, but not overpowering, rather a tropical elegance . 👄: The initial taste is soft, almost caressing. Round, supple texture, not aggressive. The bourbon provides structure: vanilla, light caramel, a clean woodiness. Then the rum arrives mid-palate, quiet but present: exotic fruits, cane sugar, a touch of spice that awakens everything. A warm, slightly dry f...

🍷Eng And Fr Description of the Domain in the first comment  .  Larsen Cognac presents an approachable yet sophisticated blend, elegant without being stuffy . Aqua Ignis Cognac from Larsen Cognac @larsencognac .  👀: In the glass, it's a warm, luminous, almost sun-kissed amber . A cognac that embraces its age without being pretentious. The legs are slow and thick. .  👃: First nose: immediate sweetness. Vanilla, dried fruit, a hint of light caramel that melts gently . Then it opens up. Candied orange, ripe pear, a touch of spice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hint of fine wood . 👄: The attack is round and caressing. No harshness, no sudden burst of heat. It settles in gently. The fruit returns: pear, dried apricot, then wood, spices, and a touch of cocoa. The texture is beautiful, enveloping, almost silky. The finish is long, bittersweet, with that little spicy twist that makes you want to go back for more without hesitation.   La Maison Lars...

🍷Eng And Fr Description of the Domain in the first comment  .  A hazy yet approachable French single malt, smoky yet accessible . Coperies Cuvée Les Brumes French Single Malt Whisky. Distilled, matured, and blended in Charente-Maritime . 👀: The color is golden, tending towards light amber. It shines just the right amount, with a gentle, almost nonchalant viscosity . 👃: First impression: a soft, not aggressive smoke. It's more like a dying wood fire than a blazing inferno. Then come notes of warm cereals, pale honey, a touch of lemon, almost zesty. The peat is there, but it whispers. It smells of damp heath, moss, wet wood . 👄: The attack is smooth, round, almost caressing. Not a slap, but rather a firm handshake. The texture is silky, well-rounded. The cereal notes return, accompanied by a malty sweetness, then the smoke gently settles in the background. The balance is clever: the peat provides structure without overpowering, adding depth. The finish is medium...

🍷Eng And Fr Description of the Domain in the first comment  .  A fun, fruity, toasty gin that plays between sweetness and a touch of rebellion . Belladone Distillery's gourmet gin .  👀: In the glass, it's clear, bright, almost silvery . 👃: It opens with red fruits reminiscent of warm jam, crushed strawberry, juicy raspberry, then a light toasty cloud that evokes the crust of lightly toasted bread. A gin that says, "Come on, I'm sweet... but not too sweet." It smells like a fruit tart that decided to sneak a shot of alcohol between batches . 👄: The initial taste is smooth, almost caressing, surprising for a gin. It immediately returns to the fruit, but this time in a wilder version: pink peppercorn, blueberry, a hint of spice .  A rich, slightly oily texture; this is far from the dry gin that hits you like a ton of bricks. Here, it glides on, it warms gently, it winks at you. The finish is toasty, long, almost pastry-like.   🇫🇷Un gin...

Veuve Goudoulin 8-Year-Old Bas Armagnac @armagnac_goudoulin32 .  👀: A deep amber color. It clings gently to the sides of the glass, as if the spirit is taking its time to reveal itself. A warm, luminous color, an aged gold like a Polaroid photo found in a Gascon attic . 👃: Candied plum, dried apricot, and that deliciously retro touch reminiscent of the soft caramel candies we used to sneak from Grandma's cookie tin . It evolves quickly: a chic woody note, a hint of vanilla, a whisper of blond tobacco suggesting, "Stay a little longer." A touch of polished wood. It sets the mood .  👄: The attack is round, warm, almost cuddly. It has a smooth, enveloping texture, with notes of prune, brown caramel, a touch of spice that tickles the tongue, a hint of nutmeg, and a tou...

It catches the light like a thin layer of resin warmed by the sun, clean, shiny, slightly oily on the sides . 👃: The herbs you crush while hiking. It smells of fresh plants, a little candied lemon, a hint of honey, an echo of camphor that tingles just enough to awaken the beast . 👄: The initial taste is crisp, almost crystalline. Then it lingers: the freshness of the génépi wraps around the tongue like a virgin wool scarf, it warms, it cools, it takes off again. Smooth texture, not too sweet (thankfully!), with a slightly medicinal note that reminds you it's a mountain liqueur, not a syrup for well-behaved children. Long, herbaceous, slightly bitter finish, f...

🍷Eng And Fr Description of the Domain in the first comment  .  🇬🇧A chic, sensual rum arrangement. A pineapple that read poetry and makes your head spin. . Organic Fruit Arrangement Pineapple Cardamom 32° from La Marque Noire @lamarquenoirerhums . 👀: Bright golden, almost sunny, like a sunset tinged with vanilla. . 👃: The pineapple hits you, but without the cheapness. It's ripe, caramelized, juicy fruit, with cardamom coming in behind. It brings order to the party. It's sweet, warm, spicy. A bit like you've just bitten into an upside-down cake from a tropical grandmother's oven. . 👄: The attack is soft, velvety, almost caressing. Then the cardamom settles in, covering, structuring, lifting. It's a back-and-forth between softness and freshness, between pineapple jam and oriental infusion. The alcohol is well integrated, just enough to remind us that this is not fruit juice for good children. A long, slightly peppery finish that stretches out.  _____...

🍷Eng And Fr Description of the Domain in the first comment  .  🇬🇧Distillerie Pascual, a gin with southern flavors in its veins. .  Distillerie Pascual Gin @distillerie.maison.pascual .  👀: Transparent like the water of a creek in Cassis, with that slight sheen that betrays a fine distillation. Nothing artificial, it flows clear and clean, almost sensual. . 👃: It hits you like a basket of fresh herbs left in the sun. Juniper, obviously, but not the kind that rips your nose off, no, a sweet juniper, flirting with candied lemon, lavender, and a hint of rosemary. There's sunshine in there, a real liquid postcard. In the background, a touch of salt. .  👄: The attack is frank, clean, and straightforward. Then come the spices, the roundness, an almost oily caress that lingers. There's the freshness of lemon, a hint of white pepper, and that lingering herbaceousness. It's a gin that speaks to you without fuss, that sends you images of aperitifs by a l...

🍷Eng And Fr Description of the Domain in the first comment  .  🇬🇧A vodka born in the heights (2042 M), which keeps the head cool and the heart warm. .  Spirits Selection 2025 Gold Medal Vodka .  🍇: French wheat blended with a Queyras potato distillate .  👀: Crystalline, obviously. But not smooth like a supermarket vodka, no; this one has a density in its transparency, a sort of polar shine. . 👃: First inhale: it smells clean, but not sanitized. More like a discreet background of hot cereal. Then come notes of sweet potatoes, a hint of toast, a hint of iced vanilla. It's clean, frank, with a certain authentic je ne sais quoi. .   👄: The attack is gentle, then the build-up reminds you that we're talking about a 41.5°. A controlled warmth, not a burn, a muscular hug. Round, almost creamy texture, balanced by a grain of wheat that adds tension and a slight final dryness. The finish? Long, clean, mineral, like a breath of fresh air at the...

🍷Eng And Fr Description of the Domain in the first comment  .  🇬🇧This rosé gin is summer in a bottle. Open it as an aperitif, and you'll thank me later. . Cuvée Mediterranean Style Rosé Gin from Maison Antidote @antidote.gin  . 👀: The color. A soft pink, almost raspberry jam lit by the last rays of sunlight, crystalline and luminous, dancing in the glass like a sunset reflection on the water. You want to dip your hand in it, like a child discovering grenadine syrup. . 👃: It smells of the Mediterranean even before you drink it. Herbs, citrus, a hint of saltiness reminiscent of sea spray. But also red fruits that tickle memories of summer picnics: strawberries, raspberries, and that hint of orange blossom that takes you straight to a Provençal market. .  👄: The attack is clean yet silky. The texture is fluid, almost airy, and the fruity notes linger without ever becoming syrupy. Herbs and citrus linger elegantly across the palate, while the finish lea...

On intoxicating notes of anise, liquorice and figs. A pleasant persistence in the mouth, with a delicately almondy finish that evokes the Mauresque (Pastis + orgeat).  A real success, to be enjoyed with ice cubes for an exquisite experience. . 🧆Enjoyed as an aperitif or cocktails  ____________________________________________ 🇫🇷Hello les amoureux du tire-bouch...
