Cantillon Lambic Fumé
Description
Lambic Fumé, sometimes called by afficionados "Lambic Tourbé" (either way temporary names to be changed later, not to be confused with "Gueuze Tourbée" in peated whisky barrels) is a blend of lambics from which the wort (unfermented beer) displayed a slightly smokey/peated-like profile without the use of any peated elements during the process. Spanish wine barrels were filled on February 2, 2024 with 1-year-old and 2-year-old lambics, where they spent about 6 months before being transferred to Pinot Noir barrels for an additional 6 months. The blend was then bottled on December 17, 2024.
