Flavour Intensity
Cognac, France
You’ve probably heard of Cognac - at least that spirit that is. You likely wouldn’t be too surprised to learn that Cognac is fairly famous for its distilleries. Located in the south-west of France, it’s an ancient, fortified town that has been a global distilling hub since the 1600s.
Bienvenue en France
France has long had a love affair with the classic “bitter”. Bitter spirits are drunk as apéritifs, used in cocktails, or added to light lagers. Sepia Amer is an homage to this traditional French spirit, with a contemporary twist.
Flavour in Full Harmony
Sephia Amer is made with a base of roasted chicory base that provides a well-rounded, light bitter backdrop for the rest of its ingredients. It includes a harmony of spicy Sardinian myrtle, earthy Angelica root, and a touch of fresh seasonal oranges that add a brightness to the recipe. Each flavour and aroma adds its unique personality, resulting in a complex, tense, bittersweet palate.
The Brains Behind It
Big Where it Matters
After working for a number of years for famous cognac distilleries including Martell and Courvoisier, Miko decided it was time to branch and pursue his own venture. In 2013, he began distilling his own spirits in his living room. A few years and three workmates later, Miko’s exquisite gins and liqueurs are growing in reputation - and are still distilled in his living room. For him, Audemus is the realisation of a lifelong love for creating spirits; his passion is present in everything he produces.
