Pastis - Clos des Spiritueux - Vintage 2022 - Without Wooden Box - 45%
The Maison Ferroni is located in Aubagne in Provence, near Marseille, in the heart of a terroir ideal for cultivating aromatic plants. The headquarters of this exceptional distillery is at Clos des Spiritueux, a unique estate combining tradition and innovation. Guillaume Ferroni, passionate about ancient spirits and medicinal plants, has designed a complete and refined range of artisanal spirits, blending local history, ancestral know-how, and authentic natural riches. The collection includes rums, whiskies, liqueurs, as well as this prestigious pastis, made with the majority of plants harvested and cultivated in a wild and preserved environment within the estate itself.
This Pastis from Clos des Spiritueux is meticulously crafted from fresh plants sourced from the 7 hectares of natural spaces on the estate. These delicate aromatic plants are harmoniously complemented by a unique assortment of Mediterranean plants grown in the Clos gardens, thus benefiting from an exceptional terroir that guarantees quality and authenticity. The manual harvest, spread from April to October, ensures a rigorous selection of the best vegetation. Each plant is then macerated separately in superfine alcohol, contained in demijohns, to preserve all the flavors and aromatic properties. After maceration, the extracts are carefully blended before aging for one year in oak barrels, which brings the pastis an unparalleled complexity and aromatic depth. Finally, the distillate is drawn off, then enriched with natural licorice and a pure anise essence, before being reduced to the final alcohol degree, to offer an exceptional drink reflecting the authentic expertise of Maison Ferroni.
