Bastille 1789 Hand-Crafted Blended Whisky
Bastille 1789 Hand-Crafted Blended Whisky is a uniquely French whisky that blends malted barley and wheat, distilled in the Cognac region and matured for 5–7 years in a combination of French Limousin oak, cherry wood, and acacia casks. Bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof), it offers vibrant aromas of orange marmalade, dried apricot, honey, and baking spice, followed by a smooth palate of vanilla, toasted almonds, orchard fruit, gentle smoke, and peppery oak. The distinctive French wood program creates a softer, fruit-forward profile than traditional Scotch, making it an approachable yet complex pour. Bastille 1789 has earned a 91-point rating from Wine Enthusiast and a Gold Medal at the International Review of Spirits, recognizing its balance, originality, and elegant French character
