This Calvados VS follows the strict Calvados AOC Pays d’Auge guidelines that require double-distillations in a traditional copper pot still called an “alembic á repassé.”
Tastes of freshly picked apples sautéed in butter, with a hint of mint. Little complexity with a strong “eau de vie” taste. Perfect for craft cocktails or served over ice with tonic and a wheel of lime.
"Warm spices on the nose, with flavors of baked apple and a faint hint of mint on the tongue." Silver Medal - Bartender Spirits Awards, 2021
Silver Medal – Regional Competition, Cambremer, Normandy 2012
The fermented cidre that is used for making Calvados (called calvados cidre) is fermented for 12 months in hundred-year-old oak barrels before being distilled. The Calvados is then put in oak barrels once again and aged for two to three years.
