An Introduction
The Treasure HunterRaj Peter Bhakta
Raj Peter Bhakta
Raj went from investment banking to real-estate to reality TV to a run for Congress to a failed Vermont dairy farm. There, brooding in his Elba in dire financial straits, he essentially sparked the craft rye whiskey movement out of necessity. Eight years later, he walked away from WhistlePig Whiskey, having created a billion-dollar brand and a personal fortune.
This new venture is an act of love, not desperation. Having spent a lifetime acquiring an encyclopedic knowledge of fine spirits and the capital necessary to secure them, Raj Peter Bhakta is proud to welcome you to his personal cellars.
The Treasure
The Brandy Revival
Grain is an industrial product that can be handled like the dirt from which it springs. Fruit is fragile, fickle, and delicious. The inherent complexity of fruit, and the artisanal touch required to coax it into a spirit worth drinking, drove our decision to make brandy our first offering. Brandy has long been misunderstood—slandered even—but in a world careening towards conformity, brandy is a stubborn dissenter.
Armagnac: Reclusive Regent of Brandy
Among brandies, Cognac gets most of the attention, which has made Armagnac the last bastion of artisanal spirits production. Our oldest Armagnac was born of grapes harvested in 1868 that were crushed under foot by children whose grandchildren are themselves dead and gone. The same custom alembic still used for production in the age of kings and emperors remains in service today. Ponder that antiquity, that commitment to craft. You will find neither anywhere else.
