About Armagnac

Armagnac is a grape brandy produced in the Armagnac region of southwestern France. It is distilled from wine and commonly aged in wooden casks before bottling. It is consumed as a spirit and may be used sparingly in sauces, desserts or other preparations calling for brandy.

The liquid is clear when unaged and ranges from golden to amber or deeper brown after ageing. Its aromas and flavour vary with grape varieties, distillation and time in cask. Bottlings include different age designations and blends; these are not interchangeable with unaged grape spirits or with other brandies.
