This 58 year old Armagnac is a Bas Armagnac from Chateau du Gaube, distilled in 1963. It has been bottled under Decadent Drinks' Notable Age Statement range at 46.3%.
Producer Description
"Extremely classical in style, it leans more heavily towards a rustic and earthy Armagnac profile dominated by dark fruits, layers of earth, tobaccos and chocolate, and many wonderful honeyed and fruity complexities. A glorious aged spirit that is the epitome of class, pleasure and decadence in a glass!"

"Château de Gaube belongs to Domaine de Lassaubatju in Hontanx in the Landes, I believe Darroze bottle it quite often. As for that NAS mention, it's a Scottish thing, I think it means 'No Armagnac Stolen', unless I'm wrong. Colour: gold. Nose: old cognac, old Yquem, heather honey, quince jelly. Emphasis on 'Old Yquem', and I am not joking. Good, to tell you a little more, that would mean leather polish, beeswax, botrytis, dried porcini, dried apricots and, once more, bergamots. Mouth: stunning. Fantastically herbal and mossy, with some very old Bénédictine (the liqueur that easily beats Chartreuse from Tarragone in my book) plus various meads. A huge feeling of humus and, indeed, moss and lichen. Finish: medium, fresh, with some mint, verbena and genepy. Comments: I could as well say it's worth 93 or 94 points but some bored people might say I'm biased, so it's only gonna be 92 (but it's worth 93 or 94). Alert alert alert alert (remember I get a free trouser button every time they sell a case). SGP:661 - 92 points."

This 1977 vintage Bas Armagnac has been bottled by Decadent Drinks at a natural cask strength of 45.2%. 90pts WhiskyFun
Producer Description
"1977 is an excellent but super rare vintage, thanks to an unusually low harvest that year. All of which makes this wee bottling a total gem and a bit of a no-brainer for us when it came to selecting our latest Armagnac Sponge. A perfect natural strength and bags of concentrated dark fruits, honey and intricate wood spices. Luscious, decadent and something undeniably very special!"

Producer Description
"Cognac Sponge Edition No.7 has been specially created by the Sponge himself from five different parcels of Petite Champagne cognac. Spanning five different vintages and bottled at natural cask strength, this is technically a 'Tres Vieux' cognac. The recipe is 8% Heritage N.69, 36% each of Heritages N.71 and N.73, then 10% each of Heritages N.75 and N.88. You have no idea the number of emails it took to make this bottling a reality - please purchase them with greedy lust and the deep weighty breaths of tortured consumerist desire."

Producer Description
"This is Cognac Sponge Edition No.9, it is a Grande Champagne Heritage N.62 which hails from the cellars of Vallein Tercinier.
This is a single cask that was bottled at natural cask strength and it is downright, illegally gorgeous old juice!
Featuring all the great flavours of long-aged Grande Champagnes: wizen old raisins, grumpy old sultanas, hammock-bound prunes, figs in blankets, dates telling stories about the war, rocking chairs whittled from pure rancio and old wireless radios playing Charles de Gaulle speeches on a loop.
First please purchase several bottles of this Cognac, and then sit with them in hushed reverence until further instruction."
