French Armagnac 20 Years Old – 70 cl
Discover the ultimate expression of French Armagnac excellence with this rare 20-Year-Old edition from Armin, often described as the “Rolls Royce of Armagnac.” Crafted from eaux-de-vie distilled between 1989 and 1998, each drop has spent a minimum of two decades resting in carefully selected handcrafted pedunculate oak barrels, shaped by the region’s last active cooper, Gilles Bartholomo. With only 1,936 bottles available worldwide—a tribute to 1936, the year of creation of the Armagnac AOC—this limited release offers both rarity and prestige.
This extraordinary Armagnac encapsulates over 700 years of French heritage, combining tradition, craftsmanship, and passion. Made from two emblematic Armagnac grape varieties, Baco (50%) and Ugni Blanc (50%), and distilled in a traditional copper still, it reflects the authentic savoir-faire of Gascony. Behind it are three lifelong friends united by their love for terroir, authenticity, and excellence, bringing Singaporean connoisseurs a taste of history in every glass.
Tasting Notes:
In the glass, this rare spirit reveals a deep mahogany hue with golden reflections. The nose is complex and elegant, offering dried fruits, roasted nuts, subtle vanilla, and fine oak aromas. On the palate, it is round, powerful, and remarkably smooth, unfolding layers of candied orange, spice, and cocoa. The finish is exceptionally long and refined, leaving a warm, indulgent aftertaste that lingers gracefully.
