How it is made

L'Agricole is one of Les Curiosités de Laubade. This blend of Ugni Blanc and Baco, harvested, vinified and distilled on the estate in 2012, first aged for 6 years in Gascon oak.

It then spent 6 months in a cask that had held rhum agricole from the Clément house in Martinique. This second finish brings vanilla and richness without masking the Armagnac's character: a lovely discovery for rum and Armagnac lovers alike.
