The 2001 is recognised by its pale yellow robe with luminous golden highlights. The nose, fine and elegant, blends prune and exotic fruits with beautiful notes of vanilla.

The eau-de-vie was distilled in a single pass, at around 56%, then left in cask until it reached 48.6% vol., the strength at which it was bottled. Presented in a wooden case.
