Dan Hakker at Beast Masters Club introducing 37 Year “Beastly Destiny” Private Cask
This is an incredible story that gives us pride, joy, and - not gonna lie - a bit of jealousy!
Dan Hakker tasted the first Beast Masters Club Armaganc back in 2018, our 30 year 1988 Leberon, and fell in love. Like many who tasted that bottle, he was a bourbon fan who'd never tasted Armagnac before. But unlike many fans he took his affection for that juice to a whole 'nother level!
For the 7 years between then and now, Dan and his wife have made countless trips to Gascony, created their own import and production company, discovered and imported new domaines that have never been sold in the US before. Like we said, we're impressed, and more than a little jealous. Today they're sitting on a treasure trove of casks, quietly aging to perfection as they patiently release one at a time.
Meet Oade Armagnac.
Beast Masters Club got one of the first ever private cask selections from Oade, and we had a big shindig at the podcast studio to celebrate, taste his inaugural line of releases, and crack open our very special 37-year cask "Beastly Destiny."
