Maison Ferrand – Renegade Chestnut Barrel 02 Ed. 70 CL 47,1%

Chestnut Wood Barrel Spirit – Eau De Vie de Vin “Cognac” – France

This version of Maison Ferrand’s “Renegade Barrel” is a cognac that is first aged in the traditional way in French Limousin wood, and then aged in casks made of chestnut wood. Although Ferrand claims that in the old days chestnut wood was often used to store cognac, this is not allowed according to the latest version of the AOC regulations, and Maison Ferrand therefore has to simply call it “eau-de-vie de vin” ”.

Colour: Nut brown with golden glints.
Aroma: A very inviting nose of overripe pears, nut cream and honey.
Tasting notes: Bold and rich, date sweetness and freshly baked banana bread.

Serving suggestion: Can be drunk neat and works well as a substitute for bourbon in cocktails.

Maison Ferrand, led by spirits guru Alexandre Gabriel, is the company behind some of the most essential cognacs, rums and gins in the modern spirits landscape. Under the umbrella there are, among others, Pierre Ferrand Cognac, Plantation Rum and Citadelle Gin, rum under the Kaniché brand and cognac under the name Claude Chatelier. In addition, a number of luxury wines are produced, of which their curaçao in particular has caused excitement in cocktail bars worldwide. The company is broad, but common to every drop is an unwavering dedication to quality.

Maison Ferrand was created with one mission: to preserve the gastronomic treasures of France. Alexandre has made a virtue of breathing life into old and long-forgotten traditions, and the eternally eager Frenchman is known, among other things, for dusting off and buying up old archives from bankrupt houses, in order to learn more about the production methods of the past. But at Ferrand you also understand the value of renewal, and today innovation is valued as highly as tradition. This is clearly seen in the Citadelle Gin brand. Getting permission to distill gin in Cognac required five years of bureaucratic struggle against the area’s stubborn spirit giants.

Since then, the company has spread beyond France’s borders, and today Ferrand is perhaps best known for its series of rums. Under the name Plantation, Alexandre buys rums from many different countries in the Caribbean and stores them in France in cognac casks. In the series there are rums for both the beginner and the connoisseur, for both the daiquiri and the Glencairn glass. In 2017, the company bought the Barbados distillery West Indies Rum Distillery, and now also has its own rum production from scratch.
