| M Futailles Sortilege (Canadian Whisky And Maple Syrup) Liquer) 60 pf 375 ml. Canada |
Product Notes: Sortilege (Canadian Whisky and Maple Syrup Liquer), Maison Des Futailles. 60 pf. The aroma is a light but sharp whiskey, with overtones of maple, some dried fruit and spice cake notes, and very light hints of vanilla.On warming up the dried fruit notes open up and masks all the other scents.Its rich maple-toffee taste can be enjoyed straight up or on the rocks. The honey-amber color is pretty and bright. At opening the aroma is more sap- and maple-like than whisky-like; exposure to air brings out a mildly pleasant fragrance of butterscotch; by the fourth pass, the sweetness of the maple departs, leaving behind a grainy, caramel corn aroma that’s nice. The palate entry is very sweet and intensely mapley; the midpalate tastes like caramel corn and maple candy. The finish is sweet, caramel-like and medium long. For people who like the taste of maple.

 About Estate: Sortilège Maple Syrup and Whiskey Liqueur is 30% abv. / 60 proof and is made in Montreal, Canada from Canadian whiskey and maple syrup. The color is that of a very light maple syrup.In the spring, when the sap starts running in the trees, the maple producers of the Northern US and Canada start their gathering. Probably everyone has seen photos of buckets hanging from taps on trees, and the maple sap running, or sometimes dripping, into them.
That sap is then boiled for hours to reduce it to the sugary goodness we know as maple syrup. But maple syrup is used many other ways including as a start for liquor. According to the Thirsty Traveler, this is accomplished by adding yeast to maple syrup. Our neighbors in Quebec are leading the way with these new maple based spirits products.It’s basically distilled maple syrup, and tastes exactly like what you would expect ? extremely smooth, not too sweet, but with a deep, fiery note of caramelized maple sugar on the finish and an overwhelming aroma of freshly baked maple sugar cookies.
