Évadé whisky unveils its new identity and its new vintage

by | September 27, 2026 | Whiskies

Created in 2019 by World Whiskies, the brand Escaped proposes a French whisky Made in Alsace, at the Hepp family distillery, from 100% French barley. A short fermentation and double distillation in hybrid stills give the spirit its fine and fruity profile.

Since the first vintages, Anne-Claire Longy has worked with Yannick Hepp on the choice of barrels and blends, in a logic of aromatic exploration which preserves the signature of the brand.

In September 2026, Évadé will evolve its visual identity towards a more contemporary design, consistent with its position among French single malts. This evolution coincides with the launch of Évadé 10 Year Old, the brand's most meticulously crafted expression to date.

Escaped for 10 years: aging in three stages

The whisky is successively aged in casks that have contained three different white wines, each making a distinct contribution to the final profile.

The first four years are spent in Sauternes casks, which form the base of the whisky. It then spends three years in Sauvignon Blanc casks.

The last three years are spent in Moscatel Douro casks, which contribute to the whisky's distinctive profile.
