Descrizione

The Calvados 12 ans d'âge from Château du Breuil is a spirit of exceptional elegance and complexity, perfectly balanced thanks to its 12-year maturation. Presented in a 70 cl bottled box, this Calvados is a refined example of Normandy craftsmanship, a region renowned for producing high-quality spirits.

On the nose, it opens with intense aromas of baked apple and sweet spices, with a slight touch of vanilla derived from long aging in oak barrels. On the palate, it is smooth and velvety, with a rich structure and a range of flavors that reflect what is perceived on the nose, enriched by nuances of caramel, nutmeg, and a hint of toasted wood.

Ideal as a digestif, the Calvados 12 ans d'âge from Château du Breuil can be enjoyed neat, on ice, or used as a base ingredient for sophisticated cocktails. Elegant and complex, it is a premium choice for enthusiasts of refined spirits.
