The namesake is the legendary poet and iconoclast François Villon (born in 1431), who penned some of France’s most enduring works before disappearing in the late 15th century. The poet’s enigmatic views and tumultuous lifestyle are still evocative and modern, centuries after his death, date and place unknown.
Crafted in the heart of beautiful southwestern France, Villon represents a revolution of France’s oldest and most renowned spirits.
Villon is distilled and blended according to a unique, closely-guarded family recipe. It’s smooth, balanced and complex, with luxurious aromas of vanilla, spice, and toasted oak.
