With the single casks of the Journal des Kirsch series, we report on the experiences that French spirits have to offer: excitement, surprise, delight and variety . The latter is particularly true of the seventh edition: the innovative Jean-Luc Pasquet L81 .
A cognac traditionally produced in the Jean-Luc Pasquet family business from grapes from Fins Bois, the spirit treasure was transferred to a freshly emptied C<>H Hampden Cask after more than 40 years of maturation in French oak. The result? An unprecedented dynamic between ester and rancio notes that reaches a new level of taste.

Classic rancio notes are For the first time, it is supplemented by ester notes that are characteristic of the Jamaican rum icon and add fruity and tropical accents.
