La Fabrique des Bières d'Anjou, also known as La Piautre, is a French malt whisky distillery located in the heart of the wine-growing region, on the banks of the majestic Loire. This craft brewery works closely with three local farmers within a 20 km radius to ensure an authentic, unique, and organic whisky. Founded in 2013, La Piautre quickly distinguished itself through its commitment to artisanal production; the initial distillation was carried out using a COYAC still and a bouilleur de cru, before equipping itself in 2017 with a traditional Charentais still. Its production method includes a long natural fermentation and a double wood-fired distillation, giving the whisky incomparable richness and finesse. La Piautre 2018 is an exceptional Single Malt, smoked with Irish peat, bringing complex and delicate notes. This whisky underwent a specific aging process, matured in two distinct casks – a 100-liter cask and a 225-liter cask, previously used for wine, carefully sanded and re-charred – before perfecting its maturation in a single cask of wine from the Coteaux de l'Aubance, which enhances its fruity aromas and roundness on the palate.
