Christian Drouin Calvados XO 40% – Exclusive French Apple Brandy

Christian Drouin Calvados XO is a wonderfully elegant and full-bodied apple brandy from Normandy. Here, ripe apples, warm spices, and delicate oak notes come together in a smooth and seductive taste experience.

This exclusive XO is made from carefully selected apples from the Pays d’Auge. After double distillation, the Calvados is aged in small oak barrels, where it develops its beautiful depth and complexity.

Aging in barrels that previously held wine and brandy, among other things, adds extra character. The result is a harmonious Calvados with a wonderful balance of fruit, sweetness, and spices.

Tasting Notes – Silky smooth and full-bodied

Color: Beautiful golden amber.

Nose: Inviting aromas of baked apples, vanilla, toasted almonds, and delicate spices.

Taste: Round and silky smooth with notes of apple pie, caramel, dried fruit, and elegant oak. The finish is long, warm, and pleasantly spicy.

A Calvados for pure enjoyment
