Christian Drouin (Domaine Coeur de Lion)

Calvados 1958

As close to perfection as can be..,, smooth, silken, 2-minute finish. Nose of ripe, preserved, wrinkled apples…complete, complex, hints of baking spices, lighter than anticipated, but packing that 80 proof wallop. I anticipate most of bottle will grace a cool winter evening in front of the fire for 2 couples! — a year ago

Le Gin de Christian Drouin

A valentines gift from my sweetheart. Sumptuously smooth with notes of apples, vanilla, citrus and a hint of rose petals. A great cocktail gin. — 5 years ago

Les Millésimes Calvados Pays d'Auge 1992

Andrew Holod
8.9

This finished in Cognac barrels. It offers a much drier expression focused on wood characteristics. Savory and firm this would be good with some pate or foie. — 2 years ago

Domaine Coeur de Lion Selection Calvados Apple Brandy

Andrew Holod
8.9

Only about 2 years on wood. This has a bit of pear in it as well which shows in a delicate perfume of yellow skined fruits. This should be very interesting to riff with as a base for white spirit cocktails. — 2 years ago

XO Calvado Pays d'Auge

Andrew Holod
9.1

Aged for 10 years in barrel.
This has well integrated components of the wood and is showing the deep harmonious notes of autumn; decaying leaf mould, slightly browning apple skin/pulp, clean hummus. It is all tertiary sweetness.
