BHAKTA Vintages are time in a bottle—and each year tells its own story. We recommend enjoying ancient vintages neat. Serve in a tulip glass for optimal aromatics. Vintages younger than half a century may be enjoyed neat or on the rocks, using a globe of ice or no more than two cubes of pure ice. Consume with patience so as to allow the aromas and flavors to evolve; taste with attention to reveal the secrets of each year. Commune with The Spirit of Time.

The pure distillation of the year 1956
One of our darkest-hued Armagnacs, BHAKTA 1956 shows burnt caramel, hummus, overripe fruit, forest floor, and leather library chairs on the nose, followed by dark chocolate, hazelnut, and praline on the palate. In history, 1956 was defined by IBM’s invention of the first computer disk, the introduction of the snooze alarm clock, and the creation of the Interstate Highway System.

The BHAKTA Spirits Vintage Library
“In this vintage paradigm, every release is special, limited in quantity — there’s only so much of any given spirit made in any given year.”
“You don’t have to love brandy to love this. . . Terrific sipping and thus an epic preview of things to come from the nascent producer.”
