A mini revolution under the Aquitaine sky… a wine-making kingdom par excellence and a place of exchange with the world, Bordeaux welcomes its exceptional whisky created by two enthusiasts…
It owes its name to the famous crescent moon outlined by the Garonne River at the entrance of Bordeaux, so symbolic of this town that it features on its coat of arms! A wonderful way of recalling that long ago, on the cobblestones of the well-named Port de la Lune or moon harbour the “Bordeaux” stamped barrels waited on the quay at night to be loaded onto outward bound ships…
With other large-scale projects including a future grand malt in the pipeline, the adventure begins with Pier 1 of Moon Harbour©. Between land and sea, elegance and character, this blended whisky is aged in Sauternes oak barrels. Enough to suggest the best, especially as it bears the signature of a genuine legend, that of Scottish Master Blender John McDougall.
July 2013, Jean-Philippe Ballanger imagines a slightly crazy passion project: to create the first Bordeaux whisky!
The DNA of MOON HARBOUR, a brand inspired by the famous Port of the Moon, is imbued with the idea of serving only the surrounding territory (barrels, cereals, stills).
It is also marked by innovation: local premium stills, freshly racked barrels, partnerships with prestigious châteaux, the world's first 100% malted corn whiskey, unique whiskey smoked with seaweed from the Arcachon basin, atypical and exceptional aging cellars under the shape of an old World War II bunker 25m high and with walls 6m thick!
Alongside them is renowned Bordeaux craftsman, Jean-Louis STUPFLER, creator of future stills installed as well as professionals from several chateaux that produce great classified vintages and barrel suppliers. Teamwork that proves that the right blend is also important in terms of human skills. Cereals used to make the Moon Harbour malt will also come from the Bordeaux region. 250 hectares of barley have already been planted!
PIER1 is a Luxury Blended Whisky produced from only the finest Malt & Grain Whiskies, selected and blended by John McDougall. This blended is finished in France over a 3 to 6 month period. By fermenting in Sauternes oak barrels, it takes on some original characteristics… Non chill filtered
