Heritage
45.9% ABVThe smooth, non-peated signature — a triple malt aged across three woods, led by extra-old Cognac casks.
A luxury French malt whisky from a family of Cognac cellar masters — matured in rare extra-old Cognac casks and released in single-digit cask runs.
The Giraud family worked as coopers and cellar masters in Cognac for over a century before turning that craft to French malt whisky.
Named for cellar master Alfred Giraud (1887–1964), the modern house — led by the fifth generation — blends French malt with a Cognac-house philosophy of patient élevage.
Maturation is built around scarce extra-old Cognac casks the family alone can source through century-old ties. Output is tiny: some expressions run to a handful of casks a year.
The smooth, non-peated signature — a triple malt aged across three woods, led by extra-old Cognac casks.
The prestige expression — lightly peated and intense, with roughly seven casks released a year.
