Merlet C2 Cognac & Cassis
Cognac & blackcurrant liqueur calls on Merlet’s expertise as both distillers and liqueur-makers, while revisiting a digestive once popular in France’s countryside, the Mêlécasse (a mixture of eau-de-vie and crème de cassis). C² Cassis is a blend of natural infusions of blackcurrant and cognac.
Cognac & blackcurrant liqueur calls on Merlet’s expertise as both distillers and liqueur-makers, while revisiting a digestive once popular in France’s countryside, the Mêlécasse (a mixture of eau-de-vie and crème de cassis). C² Cassis is a blend of natural infusions of blackcurrant and cognac. Both products are made in-house. The infusions are the very same ones Merlet uses for the Crème de Cassis de Saintonge. They are blended with cognac (minimum of 60% of the alcoholic components). Sugar is added to obtain the final product. The pairing of cognac and blackcurrant truly creates new flavours and delivers great complexity.
|TASTING NOTES|
• Nose
First, the powerful fruitiness of blackcurrant. Then comes the Cognac with some Kirsch and Madeira notes.
Powerful blackcurrant followed by jammed blackberry flavours.

Tomatin Legacy
Tomatin Legacy is a non-peated scotch with aromas of vanilla bean, white chocolate and cinnamon. On the palate, gentle waves of fresh fruit sprinkled with ginger emerge before a light, clean finish.
Tomatin Italian Collection - Marasala 46°
Aromas of panettone and candied lime lead, while flavours of white chocolate, lemon truffles and hazelnut balance perfectly on the palate. Sweet citrus returns on the finish with blood orange accompanied by notes of toasted oak.
Merlet Eau de Vigne
Eau de Vigne is a blend of different unaged eaux-de-vie. It’s a throwback to the “blanche” (unaged grape eau-de-vie) tradition – once very much enjoyed on its own. The success of aged grape spirits such as Cognac and Armagnac have little by little pushed this noble white spirit out of the limelight.
Ryoma Rhum Japonais
Ryoma is the perfect mix of Japanese excellence and traditional methods. It is unique and refined with floral and fruity accents. Ryoma rum made with pure sugar cane juice, aged in Japanese white oak casks.
The yeasts used were initially created by the distillery to ferment their sake.
