THOREAU is a unique spirit made from Guatemalan rums and V.S.O.P. Cognac. Created as a tribute to Henry David Thoreau — 19th-century philosopher, poet, and naturalist: the father of civil disobedience.
THOREAU's priority goes to taste over appellation. The result confirms the adage of all great blends: 1+1=3.
"With 70% rum and 30% Cognac, the exotic banana and crème brûlée aromas of rum combine with the bitter orange notes of Cognac. The elegance of Catherine Deneuve with the ardour of Penélope Cruz."
"The only obligation I have a right to assume is to do at any time what I think right." — H.D. Thoreau
Crème brûlée, cinnamon, and orange blossom.
Incredibly smooth and balanced — richness of walnut oil, silky and melting texture.
Persistent with crystallized fruit and hazelnut.
This exceptional product deserved a bold identity: the elegant carafe is emblazoned with a fluorescent green modern label — unmistakable on any shelf.
The tribute to the philosopher continues on the neck labels, where one of fourteen quotes by the author is featured — resolutely provocative and distinctly new generation.
