Description
"Centuries ago it was discovered that cognac, which was sent from France to the colonies, improved dramatically during the long sea voyage; equally this was true for other spirits such as Scotch whisky sent from Europe and rum sent from the West Indies.
"The rolling of the sea, temperature variations, frequent air pressure changes and the sea air itself, rounds the spirit off in a beautiful way.
"In the 20th century came the age of the brands. This meant that spirits were shipped in bottles rather than in oak barrels. The magical effect of the sea was lost as a spirit does not mature once it is bottled.
"Kelt has revived the tradition and taken it one step further. We send our already aged spirits, still in oak barrels, on a three month sea voyage around the globe.
"This, the Kelt Tour du Monde, creates a unique spirit and restores an aspect of quality lost for almost a century." -- From the box.
