The Johnny Hepp Whisky Alsacien
The Johnny Hepp hails from the Hepp Distillery based in Uberach in Alsace, hence why it is dubbed Whisky Alsacien. The Hepp family were, at the beginning of the 19th century, travelling distillers, using fruit from the orchards in Uberach and distilling it. It wasn't until 2007 when the family moved into the whisky business. The no age statement single malt has been matured in both bourbon barrels and casks which have previously housed French white wine, giving lots of green fruit and spicy notes.
