Depending on the desire or the occasion, Armagnac can be appreciated as a pleasant digestif to finish a convivial meal, but also in many other ways.
Floc de Gascogne, AOC since 1990, is a fruity fortified wine. White or rosé, depending on the grape varieties used, it is born of a marriage of fresh grape juice and Armagnac coming from the same estate. It makes the perfect aperitif and can also be drunk during a meal.
Armagnac based Liqueurs liven up a sparkling wine and fruits in l'Armagnac (Agen prunes, cherries, raspberries, oranges…) are delicious during a meal.
Armagnac is an excellent base for cocktails. L'eau-de-vie blanche, just off the alambic can be drunk ice cold on its own or with a splash of lemon, but also in the middle of a meal as a palate cleanser called the 'trou gascon', where it is sometimes accompanied by a plum or lemon sorbet. Young Armagnac (VS, VSOP ...) a few ice cubes and some sparkling water or tonic make a refreshing and simple-to-make cocktail.
L’Armagnac in cocktails ? Drink different !
Drink Armagnac differently and vary the pleasure. It can be drunk on its own as an aperitif or on ice. However, it is also an excellent base for simple and more elaborate cocktails. It is best to choose a young armagnac like a 3 star for simple cocktails or long drinks where it can be accompanied by ice and sparkling water, tonic or fruit juice. For the more sophisticated cocktails, a mellow and fruity VSOP Armagnac where the woody notes are not too prominent, can be used. Combined with other spirits, fruit juices and diverse ingredients, you will delight your taste buds and discover other ways of enjoying Armagnac !
