For the ninth release, Drouin turned to Scotland, the historic home of single malts, and in particular to the Arran distillery, with which a relationship of friendship and barrel exchanges has existed for 20 years.
A 13-year-old calvados from the Pays d'Auge was chosen for the production of this release, which was placed for 6 months in 6 old French oak barrels that had previously contained Arran whiskey.
