Tibet Single Malt
At more than 2,500m above sea level, on the Tibetan Plateau, under the shadow of the buddhist monastry Ta'Er, is the birthplace of JIU HAI BU GAN, the Tibet Single Malt.
Made from the world renown Tibetan barley, malted, mashed and fermented with the softest pure water flowing from the Himalayan rivers, and under the action of indigenous yeasts, JIU HAI BU GAN is distilled and aged in porcelain amphora (called "Jiu Hai" by Tibetans), with a know-how dating back from more than 400 years, before being matured in french or american oak casks, giving to this Tibetan Single Malt an extraordinary elegance and aromatic richness.

SADHANA Vintage 2006
The making of Sadhana Vintage 2006:
Tibetans are convinced that altitude, annual climatic fluctuation, as well as extraordinary quality of the Himalayan waters, have a strong impact on the quality of each year's barley crop, much like vintages in fine wines.
It is the crop harvested on the Tibetan plateau in 2006, distilled and aged 9 years in porcelain amphora, then 4 years in American ex-bourbon casks and French oak barrels, that has been selected for the very first Tibet Single Malt Sadhana. In full respect with Tibetan spirituality toward purity and respect of nature, Tibet Single Malt Sadhana is natural coloured and non-chill filtered.
