Bhakta 50 Year Old Brandy Barrel 12 "Lafayette" is a single-barrel Armagnac from Château Bhakta, drawn from Armagnac vintages spanning 1868 to 1970 and finished in French oak casks that previously held premium Islay whisky. Barrel 12 honours the Marquis de Lafayette and the France-America alliance, and only 578 bottles exist. It is bottled at 48.8% ABV in a 75cl bottle. The official notes open sweet with caramel, toffee and crème brûlée, developing into floral lilac, violets and muguet. The Islay finish gives a powerful, peaty attack that softens gradually, with floral essences, spices, pepper, tobacco, toast, orange peel and marmalade on the palate.
