Pastis - Clos des Spiritueux - Vintage 2022 - Wooden box - 45%
The Maison Ferroni, located in Aubagne in Provence, near Marseille, is a true reference in the world of artisanal and authentic spirits. The headquarters of this prestigious distillery is situated in the heart of the magnificent Clos des Spiritueux. Under the guidance of Guillaume Ferroni, passionate about ancient liquors and aromatic plants, an exclusive and refined range of spirits has been created. This collection harmoniously combines ancestral history, Provençal cultural heritage, and the natural riches of the region. The Maison offers a wide range of products, including exceptional rums, refined whiskies, delicate liqueurs, as well as a unique artisanal pastis. The majority of the plants used come directly from the estate, where they are cultivated and harvested in the wild, guaranteeing incomparable quality and freshness.
The Pastis du Clos des Spiritueux is an exceptional creation, made exclusively from fresh plants sourced from the estate's 7 hectares. These carefully selected aromatic plants are enriched by Mediterranean plants passionately cultivated in the aromatic gardens of the Clos. The manual harvest is meticulously spread from April to October, ensuring perfect maturity of the plants. Each plant is then placed in separate maceration in large demijohns containing superfine alcohol, to preserve all the olfactory and gustatory richness. After this crucial step, the macerations are blended and then aged in oak casks for a full year to develop a unique aromatic complexity. The distillate is then delicately drawn off before the precise addition of natural licorice and a pure anise essence, essential components for the balance and typicity of the pastis. Finally, reduction to its optimal alcohol degree guarantees an intense and memorable sensory experience.
