Immerse yourself in the intense and smoky world of peaty whiskies during this exceptional masterclass led by Antoine , a passionate ambassador for La Maison du Whisky .

This workshop is a sensory exploration dedicated to lovers of powerful single malts, where peat reveals all its complexity: from the medicinal smoke of Islay to the earthy nuances of the Highlands, via modern expressions from Japan or Northern Europe.

During this session, Antoine will guide participants through a comparative tasting of several carefully selected bottlings, illustrating the diversity of peated profiles: intensity, texture, salinity, balance between ash and malty sweetness.

Each whisky will be placed in its original context, with precise explanations of barley drying methods, ppm variations, the role of stills and the impact of aging.
