Marquis de Saint-Loup Calvados AOC Pays D'Auge 40 year

This fine Calvados is aged in old oak barrels for 40 years. 750 ML bottles. In individual gift boxes. 40% alc/vol.

Settle back in your leather armchair and enjoy its warm amber color and deep, satisfying roasted coffee aromas and hints of butterscotch.

An expressive mouth of candied orange peal, vanilla and espresso bean. . The mouth is both fine and well developed. Pleasant finish of hazelnut and clove spice.  A very long-lasting Calvados. 

The oldest Calvados deserve the greatest respect: Choose a liqueur glass such as a tulip glass or small brandy snifter, and pour your Marquis de Saint-Loup Calvados with care.  Warm it tenderly in the hollow of your hand.  Run the amber liquid slowly round the glass (held by the base) and admire its color and the patterns it traces on the sides of the glass. Calvados needs to breathe to develop its full qualities.  Wait for at least two minutes before bringing the glass up to your nose, finding the distance at which you can distinguish and absorb the subtle aromas. Then, take a few drops in your mouth before swallowing.  Now you are ready to truly savor your Calvados, sip by sip.  Take your time, and you will note a surprising development in flavor and taste. If you do not indulge too freely, your Calvados will leave a delicate fragrance on your palate.
