Christian Drouin Selection Calvados 70cl

Christian Drouin Selection Calvados

A classic expression of Normandy apple brandy, produced by the Drouin family using fruit sourced from local orchards. Distilled with care and matured in oak, this Calvados highlights the natural character of apples while gaining softness, structure and aromatic depth through ageing.

Tasting Profile:

• Appearance: Golden amber with bright clarity.
• Nose: Ripe orchard apples with hints of cinnamon, vanilla and subtle oak spice.
• Palate: Fresh and fruit-forward with baked apple, soft caramel and gentle warming spice.
• Finish: Elegant and persistent with apple skin, honey and light oak influence.
