Elixir 700

An exceptional spirit

Driven by a passion for Armagnac’s finest eaux-de-vie, Armagnac 700 founder Louis-Marie de Castelbajac brings a collection of exceptional Armagnac, from the "Triangle d'Or" cru. His ultimate aim is to showcase the rarest eaux-de-vies and expressing all the elegance and power of timeless Armagnac, as well as French Artisan Expertise, Authenticity and Heritage.

The ancient art of the master distiller: at the heart of aromas

The Armagnac 700 master distiller uses exceptional varieties of grapes to create the Armagnac. Matured for decades in the darkness and silence of our cellars, the eaux-de-vies that go into the painstaking process of creating our Armagnac are hugely rare. This culture of storing and maturing in oak barrels is specific to local tradition in order to mature incomparably refined eaux-de-vie.

The decades-old eaux-de-vie used to create the exacting Armagnac are depending on the age only available in limited quantities. Like artisan perfumers, Louis-Marie de Castelbajac and Master Distiller Eric Artigualongue selects the eaux-de-vies and incorporate them into an aromatic score to create a perfect composition where every note has its place. Their top-quality creations are built on expertise passed down from generation to generation, because old eaux-de-vies with delicate aromas require particular attention and respect.

A unique, elegant style

The clear, silky and bold style of Armagnac 700 is characterized by the minerality and aromatic power offered by very old eaux-de-vie from the clay limestone terror of the "Triangle d'Or", an Armagnac Premier Cru. These unique, hugely elegant compositions are odes to contemplation, charming the senses of great Armagnac aficionados.
