Description

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.

Tasting Notes
Nose Overripe figs and hints of vanilla.
Palate Stewed fruits with walnuts and piney undergrowth.
Finish Sweet and smoky attack softens into a silky texture with remarkable complexity.

The Vintage Story

The year in the bottle

Born in 1897, Amelia Earhart earned her pilot’s license in 1921. From there, she smashed records and championed women in aviation, accruing a laundry list of accomplishments and accolades, much like BHAKTA 50. Earhart disappeared in 1937 (a vintage found in this barrel) during a flight around the world. Despite being gone, she is not forgotten. With this barrel, we toast to the fearless pioneers who aren’t afraid to be the ones who go first.

“A superb brandy. It is extraordinarily old, yet still manages to retain a freshness and fruitiness that belies its age”
