    In 1997, Dominique Camus purchased a farmhouse in La Chapelle-Saint-Ouen, near Rouen, and started brewing. His first beers were launched in 1999. In 2002, with the help of Dominique Rimbert, a travelling distiller, he conducted his first distillation trial. Seeking autonomy, he acquired an Armagnac still and released his first whisky, named Thor Boyo, in 2005. Produced from spring barley grown on site, smoked with beechwood and fermented for five days, this expression, aged in a recharred cask that previously held Bordeaux wine, stands out for its precision and structure. Built around distinctive smoky and ashy notes, it displays impressive aromatic and taste consistency throughout the tasting.

    Color : topaze.

    Nose : delicate and subtle. Both citrusy (zest), toasted, malty and peppery, the aromatic profile is particularly bright. With aeration, the malted barley takes the lead. Then, over time, scents of ash, white fruits (pear, apple), wax and resin fill a saturated and concentrated aromatic space.

    Palate : clean and lively. Very elegant, the flavour profile revisits the white fruit and citrus notes found on the nose. This vibrant opening is followed by minty, ashy, vanilla and herbal (cut hay) flavours. A few grains of salt then gently settle on the tongue.

    Overall : rich and concentrated. Ashy and slightly smoky (eucalyptus, Armenian paper), it shows mineral notes (charcoal, graphite) while revealing beautiful liquorice and floral (violet) accents. Both gourmet (liquorice, marshmallow) and softly tannic, the retro-olfaction and empty glass express consistent notes of malted barley, praline and spiced ginger.
