Calvados

Producer Description 

Chateau du Breuil 20 years XO XL from France, is the extra large variant with a capacity of no less than 2 liters! It is a soft calvados that is rich in full aromas. Chateau du Breuil 20 years XO is a mixture of different Calvados varieties, which are at least 20 years old. This combination makes the taste of the calvados sublimely soft with a nice sweet aspect. 

Producer Description 

An elegant bouquet featuring pear and baking spice, underpinned by nuances of honey, cedar, and lemon peel, alongside a subtle almond backdrop.

A lighter expression of Calvados, presenting a dry palate that gracefully marries the sweet notes of honey with the earthiness of cedar, the zesty character of lemon peel, and the nuttiness of almond.

The finish introduces a delicate interplay of lavender, nutmeg, and a hint of cayenne.

Producer Description 

Claque-Pépin Calvados Hors d’Age is crafted from a blend of old Calvados. Aromas of flowers on the nose with flavors of fruit, pear, and vanilla and a slight hint of oak on the palate with a long finish. 

Producer Description 

Orchard fruit notes are common to both Calvados and Scotch malt whisky. Many Calvados producers double-distil in pot stills, just like their Scottish cousins. Maturation in French oak is another aspect of their shared DNA.

These two spirits share richness, sweetness and complexity; the Calvados lends an intensity and length to the finish which enhances the character of the Scotch whiskies.

Serve over ice, mix with amari and vermouth into a unique twist on a boulevardier, or pair with a deliciously sweet tarte tatin. 

We think you’ll agree that these two spirits really do have an affinity for one another. 

Producer Description

Mild and well-rounded on the palate with notes of ripe fruits and quince with a long finish and a light bitterness of almond. Four years of ageing allows the calvados to develop suppleness and roundness.
