Nose: Bright citrus zest mingles with toasted oak and warm vanilla. Hints of soft baking spices like cinnamon and nutmeg add complexity. A subtle undercurrent of fresh corn reminds you of the whisky's grain foundation.

Palate: Rich and velvety texture coats the tongue. Initial sweetness of caramel and ripe stone fruits gives way to more pronounced oak influence. Vanilla and butterscotch notes are balanced by a gentle peppery spice. The corn's natural sweetness provides a smooth backdrop.

Finish: Long and elegant, with lingering warmth. Dried fruit and honey flavors fade slowly, leaving behind pleasant oak tannins and a whisper of citrus peel. A final subtle nuttiness emerges, reminiscent of toasted almonds.

MilHòc Le Premier-Né is crafted from locally grown corn and French malted barley, distilled on-site at Château de Laubade in Gascony, and aged for 4-5 years in a unique combination of Armagnac, Bourbon, and new French oak barrels, resulting in a whisky that marries French terroir with traditional Scottish whisky-making techniques.
