The pure distillation of the year 1979 

From the largest Armagnac harvest on record — and a personal favorite of the BHAKTA Spirits Team. BHAKTA 1979 shows fruit-forward notes of plum jam, Sherry, Madeira, and moss on the nose, followed by textured layers of overripe apples and pears on the palate. In history, 1979 was defined by the debut of the McDonald’s Happy Meal, the election of Margaret Thatcher as Great Britain’s first female Prime Minister, and Russia’s ill-fated invasion of Afghanistan.
