Category: Luxury Armagnac

Date Tasted:

Alcohol: 46%
Dark amber color. Interesting aromas of apple wood, marcona almonds, amontillado sherry, and bread pudding with raisins with a chewy, vibrant, dryish medium-to-full body and a smooth, involved, medium-long sea spray, biscuit with honey, peat, and fruit cake finish. A very distinctive Armagnac with a nose of sherry and a palate of smoky Single Malt Scotch; a very interesting curio for both the whiskey and brandy aficionado.
