This “ageless” Calvados leaves a subtle taste of apple in the mouth, gradually giving way to the refined alliances of the tannins of old Calvados. Voluptuous, powerful and rich, for lovers of great alcohols.
The leading product in our range, we serve it for tasting by our visitors because it alone represents what a high-quality old Calvados can be: a perfect harmony between apple and wood, with multiple underlying aromas. Calvados for all pleasant moments.

Calvados is a brandy distilled from apples in Normandy. This well-aged example still smells like fresh apple with complex notes of toffee and baked apple pie. The smooth finish is long and delightful!
Named after the department in France where it’s made, Calvados is responsible for some of the World’s finest apple brandy. Like Cognac, there are several grades that reflect different levels of age and quality. Fine or Trois Pommes is aged for a minimum of two years, Vieux or Reserve is aged for at least three years, while Vieille Reserve or VSOP is aged for four years, and XO or Hors d’Age is aged for at least six years but generally for much longer. Vintage Calvados is also made in the finest years and will have some the greatest ageing potential. Young Calvados should have fresh and crisp fruit however as Calvados ages it gains more depth and concentration, developing notes of baked apple and stone fruit, as well as a nutty, caramel component.
