Description
Drago Blended Canarian Whiskey is made with a perfectly balanced blend of wheat and barley. Its composition uses 50% toasted raw wheat and 25% toasted raw barley, along with 15% barley malt and 10% malted wheat, all of them from the common varieties most cultivated on the islands, like the wheat "barbilla" (Triticum Aestivum) and the barley of the country or "rabuda o plaganuda" (Hordeum Vulgare).
The distillation is carried out in simple copper column from the end of the 19th century with direct burning of wood. A liquor with a lighter profile is obtained from the toasted grain (distilling between 75-80% vol.) and a somewhat heavier profile in the case of malts (between 60-65% vol.) thus preserving all the character of the cereal, all its aroma and flavor, and maintaining with great intensity the different levels of smoky notes.
Maturation takes place in 225-liter new European oak barrels (Quercus Robur, Quercus Petraea, Quercus Pyrenaica), from Hungarian, French and Spanish forests.
As a fundamental and final part, the product is hydrated with water, an element of great importance in the production of whiskey, using pure water from the natural aquifers of Marcos and Cordero on the island from La Palma.
