For years, Mr. Bachala was a lion tamer in the Zavatta circus before turning his hand to armagnac production in the late ‘70s. The humid conditions in his ageing cellars have contributed to the fact that his armagnacs have a lower alcohol level.
Tasting notes
Colour
Beautiful golden color, mahogany reflections.
Nose
The nose is complex, with aromas of candied fruits (fig, quince), fine spices (gingerbread, licorice), honey, blond tobacco, toast. Magnificient.
Mouth
In mouth, the Armagnac presents notes of leather, cocoa, undergrowth and rancio. Long in mouth.

TASTING NOTES
NOSE Stewed plums and poached pears with a hint of Christmas spices.
PALATE Very rich and mouth-coating, with layers of flavour. Opening with initial plum fruitiness and a caramel sweetness married with figs and dates and a touch of nuttiness.
FINISH Full bodied with an explosion of banana bread and a lingering hint of spice.
The noble French liqueur of 100% natural origin, an exquisite combination of Williams Pear and Cognac.
This deliciously fruity whisky enjoyed initial maturation in premium American oak ex-Bourbon barrels for over 8 years. Adding further complexity, the spirit was then transferred into specially elected Moscatel casks for a finishing period of over 42 months. A particularly aromatic dessert wine produced in Portugal, these Moscatel barriques offer up floral aromas, coupled with a silky-smooth mouthfeel. Delivering distinctive notes of tart fruit and rich toffee, this bronzed malt is one to be savoured.
