Duc De Loussac
Duc de Loussac is a distinguished brand of Armagnac, a type of brandy produced in the Gascony region of France, known for its rich history and traditional distillation methods. Founded by the Loussac family, this brand showcases the unique characteristics of the local terroir, with a focus on crafting high-quality Armagnac that reflects the flavors and heritage of the region.
The production process for Duc de Loussac involves careful selection of grapes, primarily from the Ugni Blanc and Baco Blanc varieties, which are known for their aromatic qualities. After fermentation, the wine is distilled in traditional column stills, which allows for a richer and more complex spirit compared to the pot stills often used for Cognac. The resulting distillate is then aged in oak barrels, where it develops its distinct flavors and character over time.

With expressions that vary in age, Duc de Loussac caters to both casual drinkers and connoisseurs, providing options for sipping neat, on the rocks, or as part of sophisticated cocktails.
The brand’s commitment to quality and tradition, combined with its deep connection to the Gascony region, makes Duc de Loussac a noteworthy choice for those looking to explore the world of Armagnac and appreciate the craftsmanship behind this iconic French spirit.
