This raki embodies the pinnacle of art in brandy making. After a meticulous distillation process, our brandy undergoes delicate aging in French oak barrels. This long maturation, which lasts for 3 years, allows Georges to develop a unique personality. During this period, the brandy acquires a lively golden color with reddish reflections, the natural result of its long stay in the barrel, highlighted by pronounced "tears" that testify to its concentration.
The intense and elegant aromas reveal "sweet" hints of flowers (rose, pollen, citrus), dried yellow fruits, aromatic herbs, honey, raisins and a complex bouquet that ranges from vanilla to coconut, from spices to incense, from cedar to tobacco, to cigar. In the mouth, it manifests itself with a dense and enveloping consistency, accompanied by a warm alcoholic sensation that is perceived in a deliciously "burning sweet" way. A small sip reveals its extraordinary concentration, balancing flavor intensity and persistence, a velvety texture and a unique aromatic complexity.
The aftertaste is surprising and very pleasant, with an extraordinarily prolonged duration and evolution, evoking the aromatic and gustatory richness of the ingredients derived from the grapes, from winemaking, distillation and aging in barrels, creating a harmonious and characteristic inimitable whole .
