Maison Janneau is one of the main producers that carries out the distillation, aging and bottling of its production entirely in the region of origin AOC Armagnac. Armagnac was born in Gascony, a region in southwestern France at the foot of the Pyrenees between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean coast, a rolling landscape planted with vines since the ancient Romans and dotted with beautiful medieval villages

Armagnac is one of three French brandies "appellation contrôlée". The other two are Cognac and Calvados. Armagnac is the oldest spirit in France and probably in the world.

Armagnac Janneau X.O. is a blend of Armagnacs aged at least 12 and up to 25 years in Limousin and Gascon black oak. The brandy used for the XO Royal is chosen for its quality. It is considered the best "eau-de-vie" and comes mainly from the Bas Armagnac and Ténarèze regions. The white varieties Baco and Ugni Blanc are distilled in the single distillation process and to a lesser extent in the double distillation process.

It has balanced aromas of caramelized, buttery nuts. Floral and dried fruit unfold a soft, velvety approach followed by fruity yet dry smooth fullness with hints of honey, nougat and spice. The finish is very long and sensual. One perceives as well notes of various fruits, caramel, brown spices.
