The exclusive French oak barrels used for aging Turkish coffee liqueur are a true rarity and are distinguished by their refinement and uniqueness. These highly limited barrels were first used for the storage of high-quality brandy before being filled with coffee liqueur. This double maturation process creates a fascinating complexity that highlights both the robust aroma of the coffee liqueur and the deep, rich notes of the brandy previously aged in the barrels.
French oak is renowned for its excellent properties when it comes to aging spirits. The wood is dense and fine-grained, making it ideal for imparting subtle aromas into the liquid. With these particular barrels, a wonderful combination of different aromas emerges. The coffee liqueur develops strong notes of freshly roasted coffee, dark chocolate, and molasses, which gain additional depth and smoothness from the French oak. These powerful, dark flavors are harmoniously complemented by delicate nuances of cinnamon, cardamom, and light wood tones.
The aging in French oak barrels gives the Turkish coffee liqueur a distinctive, multi-layered aroma. The soft, vanilla-like wood notes of the French oak blend perfectly with the intense aromas of the coffee, resulting in an exceptionally harmonious overall profile. The aroma is both bold and balanced, allowing each component to unfold in its own space. The sweet notes of caramel and molasses, which come from the brandy maturation, also add a slightly fruity depth that lingers in the aftertaste.
The influence of the French oak and the previous brandy aging give the liqueur a fine, silky texture that is noticeable on the palate. The notes of coffee, dark chocolate, and spices like cinnamon and cardamom linger long, providing a layered and satisfying taste experience. These barrels offer a rare opportunity to experience the rich and multifaceted aroma of coffee liqueur at its best.
