Description
Aged a minimum of 6 years in oak. There is no caramel or sugar added and it’s an earthy, bold Calvados, with flavors of baked apple, toffee, oaky vanilla and an off-dry finish
86 Proof – 43% ABV
“Up front, there’s a stunning array of ambrosial scents, including baked apple strudel, clove, cinnamon, apple peel, and unsweetened apple juice; later sniffs pick up riper, earthier fragrances, such as cigar box, pipe tobacco, brambles, tomato vine, black tea, and tree bark. Entry is stone dry, tart, and astringent, and only mildly apple-like, but more than anything it’s the mouth-puckering tartness that rules the day; mid-palate suddenly turns richer and spicier as the taste profile at this point doesn’t wholly reflect the entry stage, and that’s fine by me as the flavor becomes intensely orchard fruit-like and zesty. Finishes long, ripe, spicy (allspice now), and bittersweet.”-4 Stars/Highly Recommended,Paul Pacult, The New Kindred Spirits, 2021
