Normandy, meet Gascony. From the global cellars of BHAKTA Spirits comes one of the most innovative, unique flavor combinations in the world of drink—a union of two ancient French distilling traditions conceived by spirits visionary Raj Peter Bhakta. Robust, fruit-forward, floral, and complex, 27-07 is a deeply-aged brandy blend crafted for the whiskey lover’s palate—with the BHAKTA Method’s signature Islay finish adding smokiness and power. It’s also the perfect entry into the rarified world of aged spirits. While the 27-07’s intended age  statement— 7 years at its youngest, and 27 at its oldest—already placed it among the oldest spirits widely available today, its creation was the result of a blending mishap at Chateau BHAKTA in Condom, Franc., which almost cost their Cellar Master Giles his job. . . based on the vintages actually used in the blend, the true age of 27-07 is 18 at its youngest, and 49 at its oldest.

A Calvados lover for many years, Raj was inspired to bring together two famous AOC brandies that come from opposite ends of France. His drive to acquire spirits with remarkable age statements led him to the Normandy region, where he forged partnerships with the most reputable houses in Northwestern France, home of Calvados brandy.

TASTING NOTES
27-07 boasts a completely unique flavor profile. In order to freely express the cidery distillate, Calvados makes up
90% of the blend, whilst the full-bodied Armagnac creeps into the tune of 10%. It is just the perfect touch required to bring an extraordinary complexity that cannot be found in just one of these brandies alone. In
the signature rule-bending BHAKTA style, the brandy is finished for a brief spell in Islay casks to get a hint of
that smokiness prized by whiskey lovers. 90% Calvados, 10% Armagnac | Proof: 90
