RUE DU NIL

When a team of revered palates is let loose in a warehouse full of single malt whisky, this limited edition bottling is the result. Creatively, the worlds of gastronomy, oenology & whisky are on different orbits, but once in a blue moon their trajectories cross. Inspired by La Maison du Whisky, Frenchie’s Chef Owner Gregory Marchand & Wine Director Aurélien Massé as well as Waterford’s Head Distiller Ned Gahan were united in a challenge to search for the rarest & most intensely flavoured ingredient in our pantry of maturing spirit: biodynamic whisky. They present us with a fresh, dynamic bottling, rooted in the most natural of flavour as well as true provenance & authenticity, suited for the most hallowed table.
