ABOUT
Coperies is a French Single Malt whisky made in a unique distillery. Distillers for five generations in Charentes region, Distillerie Merlet & Fils is well-known for its liqueurs, aperitifs and cognacs With the Melret family’s centuries-old know-how of the crafting of the most prestigious French brandy, with Coperies they embark on an exciting new adventure.
The name Coperies is a very old word for “harvest” in the local dialect. Hence its identity is purely French, and even more specifically “Charentais”.
METHOD
The barley is grown, malted and brewed in France, then distilled and aged at Distillerie Merlet & Fils, in the Charentais region of France. Distillation is doubly run in Charentais copper pot stills, giving a round and elegant malt eaux-de-vie, which is then aged in French oak barrels, balancing new and old casks, for subtle spicy notes and silky tannins for approximately 3-4 years.
TASTE & AROMA
A floral and fruity whisky of unequalled finesse, with subtle spice and silky tannins on the finish.
