BHAKTA 50 Year Old 1868-1970 "Jackie" Barrel 27

BHAKTA 50 is a limited edition 50-year Armagnac collection for spirit enthusiasts seeking the best spirits in the world.

When the brand first started, we created 38 single barrels, each a blend of Armagnac vintages from our single vintage library spanning 1868 - 1970, giving you the opportunity to taste spirits distilled in the 19th century.

A brief finish in a Scotch Islay cask makes it one of the most unique spirits collectibles you will find anywhere. Sampling this astounding array of historic vintages involves a journey across the twists and turns of time—and offers a unique glimpse into the mind of our founder, Raj Peter Bhakta.

Vintages included: 1868 – 1888 – 1924 – 1941 – 1952 – 1963 – 1967 – 1970

Barrel 27 "Jackie"

Each barrel of BHAKTA 50 is named for an iconic character whose deeds echo through time.

The 27th barrel honors Jaqueline Kennedy Onassis, acknowledged as “unlikely to become a housewife” in her high school yearbook, Jacqueline Bouvier instead became a tour de force as an American icon and the First Lady to JFK. They first met in 1952, and she was JFK’s partner in politics, adding panache to the presidency until JFK’s assassination in 1963. She effortlessly blended the old with the new, heading historic preservation efforts and setting fashion trends.
