six months in steel

Escolma receives careful barrel aging and represents the pinnacle of Rodriguez's decades-long commitment to complexity

Four decades in Armagnac oak have created extraordinary depth while retaining remarkable strength at around 47 48% ABV, bottled at cask strength with no filtering, coloring, or additives. This is Armagnac as honest as it
