Bordeaux Distilling - Adventure No. 3 - Organic French Rye Whisky - 5 years old - Double Cask - 43% - On sale at Clos des Spiritueux
Discover the third edition of the Aventure collection by Bordeaux Distilling, a renowned distillery in Bordeaux. This 5-year-old Organic French Rye Whisky embodies the artisanal excellence and creative audacity of a passionate team, including actor Jean Dujardin. Aventure No. 3 extends the exploration of French rye with a new complexity, polished by five years of aging and double maturation. Its unique approach combines aromatic depth, elegance, and precision, all certified organic.
This exceptional whisky is made from certified organic rye, fermented slowly to preserve the purity and intensity of the grain, then distilled in small batches to reveal all the aromatic richness of the rye. The “Double Cask” aging harmoniously combines two types of wood: first a fine-grained oak providing structure and length on the palate, then more generous casks imparting roundness, pastry nuances and indulgence. This woodwork enhances the texture without ever masking the cereal identity of the French rye. Its 43% bottling offers a perfect balance between expressiveness, drinkability and persistence, for a decidedly gastronomic tasting experience.
On the nose, Aventure No. 3 reveals seductive notes of baking spices (caraway, sweet pepper, cinnamon), orange zest, dried flowers, and a subtle hint of honey. On the palate, the whisky is straightforward and silky, unfolding a palette of toasted cereal, natural vanilla, roasted hazelnut, and a hint of cocoa. The savory structure maintains a vibrant rhythm until the finish, long, clean, gently spiced, supported by delicate oak and a discreet saline reminiscence, a true Bordeaux Distilling signature.
For optimal enjoyment, serve Aventure No. 3 neat at a temperature of 16–18°C, or with a drop of water to enhance the rye spices. Thanks to its exceptional length in the mouth, it also shines brilliantly in mixology: elegant Manhattan, subtle rye Old Fashioned, harmonious Boulevardier or refreshing highball, it enhances your bar. At the table, this exceptional whisky is the perfect accompaniment to grilled duck breast, roasted poultry with herbs, a mature Comté cheese, a discreet blue cheese or a nut and caramel dessert.
With Aventure n°3, Bordeaux Distilling signs the synthesis of the first two editions: where n°1 highlighted the finesse of oak and n°2 the energy of a more generous profile, this third cuvée harmoniously combines these worlds thanks to the Double Cask and time. This Organic French Rye Whisky embodies character without ostentation, designed for immediate pleasure as well as for high-end mixology. It stands out as a must-have to add to any restaurant or bar menu seeking authenticity and excellence. Available now at Clos des Spiritueux , your expert in exceptional spirits.
