Pastis - Château des Creissauds - 2019 - Brut de Foudre - Open Spirits Edition 2021 - 61.7%
The Maison Ferroni, emblematic of excellence in artisanal spirits, is located in Aubagne in Provence, at the heart of the Marseille region. The headquarters of this prestigious distillery is at the Château des Creissauds. Guillaume Ferroni, a true enthusiast of ancient liquors and aromatic plants, has developed a sophisticated and varied range of spirits, harmoniously blending local history, Provençal cultural heritage, and exceptional natural richness. His selection includes rums, whiskies, liqueurs, and of course, the famous pastis, most of whose necessary plants are cultivated and harvested in the wild, directly on the estate.
The Pastis from Château des Creissauds is meticulously crafted from fresh plants sourced from the estate's 7 hectares. These precious aromatic plants are enriched by Mediterranean essences carefully cultivated in the aromatic gardens adjacent to the Château. The harvest, entirely manual, extends from April to October, ensuring optimal freshness of the plants. These are then individually macerated in demijohns in an exceptional superfine alcohol. After this separate maceration, the extracts are carefully blended and then aged for one year in oak casks, a process that enhances their complexity and natural aromas. Once the distillate is drawn off, licorice and anise essence are delicately incorporated before reduction to the final alcohol content.
This exclusive edition is bottled without reduction, at cask strength, thus offering unparalleled aromatic intensity and power, ideal for discerning enthusiasts seeking an authentic and exceptional pastis.
