Production & Story
Kelt is renowned for reviving the 19th-century practice of ocean-voyage finishing known as the Tour du Monde. After aging in French oak, the VSOP embarks on a sea journey that gently moves the spirit and exposes it to changing temperatures and barometric pressure — a process prized for deepening integration and aromatic complexity.
