BHAKTA 1986 Armagnac

The pure distillation of the year 1986

BHAKTA 1986 shows nougat, smoke, bay leaf, and toasted bread on the nose, followed by cinnamon toast and gingerbread on the palate. In history, 1986 was defined by the nuclear meltdown of Chernobyl, the Challenger explosion, the Iran-Contra scandal, and the box office debut of Top Gun.

BHAKTA 1986 Armagnac
The BHAKTA Spirits Vintage Library

Offering single vintages of Armagnac reaching 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.

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.”
