Camus entrusts us with the distribution of its Irish Lambay whiskeys

Camus La Grande Marque has entrusted us with the distribution of the Lambay Irish whiskey range, born from the meeting of two visionary minds: Cyril Camus and Alexander Baring. Owned by the Baring family since 1903, Lambay Island lies just a few kilometres off the Irish coast, near Dublin. This preserved territory offers a unique environment where tradition and innovation come together to create distinctive whiskeys. Triple distilled, Lambay whiskeys are finished in cognac casks, a signature of the House of Camus. On the island, the casks rest in a century old maturation warehouse known as the Sea Cask Room. The maritime microclimate marked by sea spray, iodine and salty air permeates the wood and contributes to the aromatic richness of the whiskeys. The reduction is carried out using the volcanic water of Trinity Well, a naturally mineral rich spring located on the island, bringing finesse and elegance to the spirit. The development of the range is overseen by Julie Landreau, Cellar Master of the House of Camus, who brings her expertise in maturation and blending to the Lambay whiskeys. We now distribute three expressions from the brand: Lambay Irish Malt Lambay Small Batch Lambay Single Grain A range that embodies the union of Irish terroir, maritime microclimate and the craftsmanship of the House of Camus.

Togouchi Rum Cask Finish named Spirit of the Year 2025!

We are proud to announce that Togouchi Rum Cask Finish has been named Best International Whisky at the Spiritueux de l’Année 2025 competition, organised by Cavistes & Co. The Spiritueux de l’Année competition, led by Cavistes & Co magazine, recognises new launches in the spirits and aperitif categories based on several criteria: their capacity for innovation, as well as their suitability for specialist retail networks, particularly in terms of communication, price positioning and overall product quality. The selection process takes place in two stages. Wine and spirits merchants, delicatessens and other specialist retailers first identify the most noteworthy references. The shortlisted candidates are then validated or ranked by a panel of industry professionals. For this edition, nearly 400 wine and spirits merchants and delicatessens took the time to evaluate the new releases launched in 2025, making this award especially meaningful. This distinction highlights the craftsmanship of Sakurao Distillery, whose expertise and innovative spirit are fully expressed in this rum cask finished whisky, bringing aromatic complexity and elegance. We extend our sincere thanks to the Cavistes & Co team and to the members of the jury for this recognition, which once again confirms the innovation and excellence of Sakurao Distillery.

Amarula joins our portfolio of brands!

We are pleased to announce that we have taken over the distribution of Amarula, the iconic South African liqueur crafted from the marula fruit, a symbol of the country’s rich and wild natural environment. Amarula’s story is closely linked to Africa’s majestic elephants. Each year, during their migrations, they feast on the marula fruit, which grows wild across South Africa. It is from this unique fruit that Amarula was first created in 1963. In 1989, the addition of cream to the recipe gave birth to the famous Amarula Cream liqueur, now recognised worldwide. Hand-harvested marula fruits are transformed into marula wine, then distilled and matured for two years in French oak casks. Cream is then added, bringing a smooth texture and indulgent notes of vanilla, spices and caramel. Amarula is also committed to preserving its natural environment through the Amarula Trust, an initiative dedicated to protecting African elephants, supporting local communities and developing sustainable programmes. We now distribute four expressions from the brand: Amarula Original Amarula Ethiopian Coffee Cream Amarula Vegan Amarula African Gin, a unique gin crafted from marula spirit and carefully selected botanicals. A range that celebrates the richness and authenticity of this iconic African fruit.

Togouchi rum cask finish

Now available from the finest specialist retailers: Togouchi Rum Cask Finish. This rounded, fruity 100% Japanese whisky is the result of a unique blend of grain and malt whiskies distilled on the shores of the Seto Inland Sea at the SAKURAO distillery. It is then aged in bourbon casks in a former railway tunnel—where maturation conditions are particularly ideal—before being finished for several months in casks that previously held Jamaican rum. Fully distilled, aged and blended by Sakurao Distillery, Togouchi whiskies stand out for their subtle, refined profile, reflecting their deeply Japanese roots. The team draws on a century of expertise in producing traditional spirits such as sake and shochu, applying it to established whisky-making methods. Thanks to a meticulously designed production process and rigorous selection of raw materials, the Togouchi range offers distinctive aromatic profiles and innovative finishes.
