- Ageing:
- All Castarede armagnacs are well aged in oak casks. The cellars are next to the Baise river ensuring that they are always damp.

- Single distillation at around 58 – 60 degrees. This provides more complex aromas and taste

- Firm mouth with gingerbread flavours and a long finish of dried fruit with walnut notes.
- Grape Variety:
- Mainly Colombard.
- Reduction & Strength:
- Limited reduction with distilled water
- Viticulture:
- The climate is soft and humid with sunny autumns and the soil is made of siliceous clay which is poor in lime, giving Bas Armagnacs a lightness and fragrance with subtle tastes
