Nose: New world style chardonnay with buttery and toasty notes and subtle apple notes. Palate: Toasted bread, crackers, cashew and light roses. On Ice: Gingerbread, vanilla and dried fruits. This eau-de-vie combines qualities only found in the most exclusive spirits in the world as well as characteristics only original to this brand. In effect, MONTERU cannot be compared to any other brown spirits as it stands alone as the only premium and original single varietal eau-de-vie made using the world's favorite French grapes with double distillation in antique pot stills. Further, it benefits from being aged in Limousin oak barrels that have already been used to mature old cognacs.
