The French spirits scene is enriched by a new nugget: Khêmeia, a single malt that embodies the excellence of French distillation. Produced in the heart of the Charente-Maritime region, at the Aumagne distillery, Khêmeia is the fruit of meticulous expertise and a passion for creating exceptional spirits.

At the heart of Khêmeia’s production process is distillation in a Charentais pot still, a choice that sets this whisky apart from the rest. This technique, traditional to the region, gives the spirit unique qualities, both in terms of texture and aroma. Aging in Bourbon casks for over three years, under the influence of the region’s ocean breezes, enriches Khêmeia with incomparable complexity and deliciousness.

Monia Martin, a renowned Master Distiller, plays a key role in the making of Khêmeia. Her expertise and mastery of double distillation are essential to guarantee the quality and authenticity of the whisky. Her meticulous work is a fundamental pillar of Khêmeia’s uniqueness.

Khêmeia is distinguished by its rich, subtle aromatic profile, reflecting the terroir and authenticity of its production. The name Khêmeia, inspired by alchemy, symbolizes the transformation of simple raw materials into a product of extraordinary richness and complexity. This single malt is an invitation to a sensory voyage, revealing expressive, warm cocoa notes, enhanced by hints of candied ginger.

Khêmeia is best enjoyed neat or on the rocks, to fully appreciate its nuances and the finesse of its production. It’s also perfect for creating cocktails, offering a wide range of aromas for original, flavorful blends.

Distributed at a competitive market price of €37.90, Khêmeia is available both in supermarkets and online, offering whisky lovers a new French taste experience.

Khêmeia is a brand owned by family-owned Terroirs Distillers, reflecting a commitment to quality and a passion for creating unique spirits. This new single malt is a celebration of French distilling expertise, marking an exciting turning point in the world of whiskies.
