FAQ's For Janneau XO Grand Armagnac

How is this spirit made?

This XO is distilled from a classic Armagnac trio of Ugni Blanc, Folle Blanche and Baco, grapes chosen for their acidity, aromatic lift and ageing potential. Janneau is one of the few houses to use double distillation in copper stills. A method that produces a smoother, more refined spirit while preserving depth and fruit richness.

The eaux‑de‑vie are matured for many years in French oak casks, with a significant portion aged over 20 years. This long maturation develops layers of dried fruit, honey, spice and floral complexity, resulting in an XO that is both luxurious and impeccably balanced.

How should I store this spirit?

Store upright in a cool, dark place. Armagnac remains stable after opening, but avoiding heat and light preserves its clarity.

What’s the best way to serve this XO?

Serve neat in a tulip glass to allow its layered aromas to unfold slowly.

Should I decant Armagnac?

Decanting isn’t necessary, but resting in the glass enhances its aromatics.
