GALAAD Whisky: The Breton Epic

Located in Ploërmel, at the gateway to the legendary Brocéliande forest, the La Mine d'Or distillery embodies the alliance between tradition and innovation. Founded by Stéphane Kerdodé, this family-run distillery produces GALAAD, its first single malt whisky, a true ode to the Breton terroir. Distilled and aged on the Ronsouze estate, between land and sea, GALAAD is the result of artisanal work: local barley, traditional malting, fermentation in wooden vats, then slow maturation in carefully selected barrels. Each step reflects absolute respect for the surrounding nature and the distillery's eco-responsible commitment. Upon tasting, GALAAD reveals a rich and balanced aromatic palette: notes of fresh cereals, honey, dried fruits, and a subtle hint of iodine, imbued with the Breton sea air. The finish is smooth and persistent, guided by accents of light peat and vanilla. With GALAAD, La Mine d'Or makes a masterful entry into the world of French whiskies, demonstrating ancestral know-how combined with a modern vision. A whisky to discover and immerse yourself in the legends of Brocéliande and the Breton art of living.
