Bas Armagnac Delord XO is aged for a minimum of 6 years in oak and receives this well deserved review.

'The burnished/tawny/bronze colour is gorgeous; excellent clarity. The first inhalations come across laid back aromas of caramel, marshmallow, and cotton candy; aeration brings out the depthand key importance of the oak through scents of vanilla bean, dark honey, nougat, pipe tobacco and rancio. The palate entry is fat, buttery and creamy; at mid-palate the taste profile soars as robust flavours take charge, most prominently, honey, dark toffeeand cocoa. Texture is heavy. Finishes on a honeyed note. An excellent armagnac.' Paul Pacult, Kindred Spirits 2.
