BHAKTA 1962 Armagnac

BHAKTA 1962 Armagnac

The pure distillation of the year 1962 

One of our darkest-hued Armagnacs, BHAKTA 1962 shows roasted meat, caramel, and cigar box on the nose, followed by a vibrant palate of orange peel, banana, honey, and dark chocolate. In 1962, Bob Dylan released his first album, Taco Bell was founded, and John Glenn made history as the first American to orbit the Earth; the Cuban Missile Crisis made time stand still, but infamy was averted.

BHAKTA 1962 Armagnac
The BHAKTA Spirits Vintage Library offers single vintages of Armagnac dating back through nearly every year since 1868.

Each year captures and expresses the unique climate conditions, the technique of different distillers, and the compounding intricacies of time spent in both wood and glass. BHAKTA Armagnac grows in complexity and nuance the longer it is aged.

The Finest Stocks

All of our Single Vintage Armagnacs come from Chateau BHAKTA in Condom, France

After a harvest from the vineyards in the Armagnac region and distillation in wood-fired alembic stills, the long aging process in French Oak barrels begins.

Our cellarmaster, Bernard, who has tended the Chateau’s stocks for over 50 years, ensures each vintage is aged to perfection.

“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.”
