Continue Shopping Add to Wish List

Batch #1. Aged 17 years in oak cask. Bottled in 2001. / 57.3% ABV / A finish in Worthy Park and why not a little exoticism… Here is, after months a little confined…, our last born of the house…. We decided to take the road of the sun of the islands… Direction Jamaica!

A Pouy 2001 Armagnac Tenarèze, a limestone terroir, a domain with Armagnacs a little strong in degree.Vincent, our cellar master, wanted something fruity, with character to marry with this Jamaican rum barrel with the characteristic scents of these hydrocarbon rums….

Armagnac and rum play a game of chase with the nose. Sometimes one, sometimes the other….These oily, woody aromas, of very ripe bananas, a little vegetable, cut grass and then comes the sweet side, pineapple, apricot, mango…tobacco. After aeration, we think we recognize the violet, this old plum side coming straight from the native Tenarèze of the Pouy 2001 domain.

In the mouth, a nice power, a fat side brought by the worthy park barrel, peach, apple compote, then a beeswax, hydrocarbon, gunflint side. The spicy side comes back at the end of the mouth. Close your eyes, the trip is successful!
