The Calvados 1981 Millésime Pays d’Auge produced by Drouin is a fine spirit that represents the excellence of Norman tradition. Produced in the privileged area of Pays d’Auge, this apple brandy benefits from the peculiarities of the terroir, known for its clay-limestone soils and particular climatic exposure, ideal for cultivating high-quality cider apples. The distillation takes place according to a strict traditional method, using copper stills, which allows for enhancing the elegance and finesse of the aromas.
This Millésime is a carefully aged calvados since 1981, a long maturation in oak barrels that imparts complexity and smoothness to the spirit. On the nose, it opens with enveloping notes of ripe fruit, baked apples, and light hints of vanilla, enriched by delicate nuances of sweet spices and toasted hazelnut. The palate is harmonious and velvety, with a perfect balance between freshness and structure, finishing on a long and rounded persistence.
Ideal to enjoy at room temperature as an after-dinner drink or paired with aged cheeses, this Calvados expresses the authentic and refined character of the Norman tradition. A sensory journey that celebrates decades of patient artisanal mastery.
