Launched in 2012 by Allison Parc, collaborating with a French distiller in Cognac, Brenne French Single Malt Whisky is something quite special indeed. It's made with malted barley grown in Cognac, double distilled, then initially matured in Limousin oak casks before enjoying a finishing period in Cognac casks. Each bottle is drawn from a single cask and is bottled at 40% ABV. Rather cool stuff indeed.
Nose: Vanilla flowers arrive on the nose first, paired with pear drops and dried mango.
Palate: Brandied cherry and red rope liquorice. More vanilla, a hint of cinnamon spiciness and Nutella.
Finish: Chocolate raisins, pineapple and coconut ice.

Got a sample of this a few months back and I have to say I was thoroughly disappointed. I’m usually very good at finding the unique characteristics of a whiskey but I simply couldn’t with this one.An overly sweet drink, tastes more like strawberry liquor without any alcohol taste, no burn but no enjoyment at all.A poor introduction into french malts and would highly recommend to avoid this one if you are an enthusiast looking for ‘something different’

Absolutely unique. Don't judge it based on your understanding of a Scotch etc. Enjoy it for what it is. There's nothing quite like it.

Tastes more like a liqueur than a whisky. Can't argue with the foam banana comparisons. Albeit, I'm sure there'll be someone out there who likes it

Very different to your usual whisky but nice. If you're going into this expecting something in particular you may be disappointed as it does have a unique and even sweet taste that is unlike your usual Scotch. Will be adding a bottle to my collection.

Got my sample from drinks by the dram this was horrific worst whisky I’ve ever tried.

Received a dram with my Drinks by the Dram. Reminds me of cheap dessert wine. Not very pleasing

Smells like flowers and foam Bananas. Not pleasant. Really sweet, artificial. Thin an acrid. For the love of whisky, avoid.

Okay I’ll give it to you the nose is artificially off putting and smells like foam banana sweets which in my opinion no whisky should smell like. Once you get over the smell and actually put it in a glass with an ice cube it’s sweet smooth and subtle. Wouldn’t actively order it in a bar bit wouldn’t be disappointed if someone bought me a drink.

Whatever it is it is not Scotch. Aside from that it's artificial and really quite nasty.

This is like no other whisky I have ever tasted. It is very different to them all quite unique in fact. When I tried it I was expecting to say they should stick to making brandy but it was quite superb but very different to Scotch. Could be improved if it were finished at a higher ABV say 48 or 50%.
