Whisky Stones — Gabbro Verde

These 2.7-billion-year-old stones come from the Chapais region. They were born from a dyke of magma that cut through volcanic rock during the Archean eon, when active volcanoes shaped the land that is now Québec.

The stone
An igneous rock marked with bright green and forest green spots, slightly transformed by the volcanic heat around it.

The set
Six whisky stones presented on a Canadian walnut base.

The ritual
Place the stones in the freezer for at least two hours. Add two or three stones to your glass, pour, and let your whisky cool gently without a single drop of water. Afterwards, rinse them with clear water, let them dry and return them to the freezer.

Made by hand in Québec
We extract our stones by hand, without heavy machinery, then cut and finish each one in our workshop. Perfect with whisky, scotch, bourbon, rye, cognac, armagnac, port and aged rum.

Each stone is unique: the colour and grain of the stone and the wood vary from one set to another.
