Producer
Armagnac Janneau is one of the oldest and most prestigious Armagnac producers in France, founded in 1851 by Pierre Etienne Janneau in the town of Condom, located in the heart of the Armagnac region. For over a century and a half, Maison Janneau has remained faithful to traditional production methods, combining them with innovations to create high-quality Armagnacs.
It is particularly distinguished by its use of two distillation methods: continuous distillation and double distillation in traditional copper stills, a rarity among Armagnac producers. All production processes, from distillation to aging and bottling, take place within the AOC Armagnac region, ensuring authenticity and superior quality in every product.
The aging process occurs in old cellars built in 1851, where the Armagnac matures in French oak barrels, acquiring richness of flavor and complexity.
