Infos du distillateur
The Vercors Distillery is located in the "Domaine De Flandaine", an ancient silkworm farm. This beautiful place became 10 years ago, the cradle of Single Malt Whisky named "Séquoia". The name was chosen in tribute to the huge bicentenary tree who sits in the middle of the courtyard.
We distill an organic whisky, organic since the beginning in 2016. We made our own beer with barley and our spring water. Then come the distillation and the aging in nice wooden barrels. Eric, the Master Distiller, created his own Wash Still, named "Nautilus". Launched in 2016, Nautilus is designed to distill at low temperature, 50°C instead of the usual 100°C for distillation. This technical process and the gentle atmosphere of the countryside make Séquoia an exceptional whisky, multi-awarded in international competitions.
All steps are doing on place : Séquoia Whisky are brewed, distilled, aged and bottled by the Distillerie du Vercors.
