Originating from the prestigious Chateau Du Breuil distillery, in the heart of Normandy, France, the Calvados 10 ans d'âge fûts de Whisky offers a superior taste experience that combines the traditional distillation of Calvados with a sophisticated influence imparted by aging in whisky barrels. This Calvados is a distillate of carefully selected apples, which after fermentation is aged for ten years in barrels previously used for whisky, enriching it with complexity and depth.

Visually, the liquor displays a deep amber color, with reflections that sparkle in the elegant 70cl boxed bottle. On the nose, the fruity tones of ripe apples are immediately distinguishable, skillfully mixed with notes of vanilla, toasted wood, and a subtle smoky hint, testifying to the uniqueness of the aging in former whisky casks.

On the palate, the Calvados 10 ans d'âge fûts de Whisky reveals a full and harmonious body. The initial sweetness of the apple is soon balanced by a subtle astringency and a well-balanced alcoholic warmth, which develops into a long and lingering finish with reminiscences of sweet spices and a delicate smoky note.

Perfect to enjoy neat at the end of a meal, this high-quality Calvados is also an excellent companion for the mixology of sophisticated cocktails, where it can replace whisky for an intriguing twist on classics like the Old Fashioned or the Manhattan.

Acquiring a bottle of Calvados 10 ans d'âge fûts de Whisky from Chateau Du Breuil represents not only an enrichment of one's collection of spirits but also an opportunity to explore the unique crossover between two great distilling traditions.
