Michel Couvreur Vin Juane Single Malt French Whisky

Michel Couvreur refines a Scottish malt by aging it entirely in Jura Vin Jaune casks, a white wine from France’s Jura region, similar to Fino Sherry. These casks, left unrinsed, infuse the whisky with deep, complex flavours. Stored in Burgundy’s underground cellars, this unique maturation process enhances the whisky’s rich character, making it a standout for those who appreciate distinctive cask finishes.
