The Calvados 2005 Millésime Pays d’Auge Calvados Cask from the Drouin house represents excellence in Norman distilling art, coming from the renowned Pays d’Auge area. Here, apples grown in clay and limestone soils provide a raw material of the highest quality, essential for a refined and complex spirit. This Calvados is produced exclusively with selected apples, distilled following the traditional double copper pot still process, which gives finesse and aromatic depth to the final product.
Aged for about 15 years in oak barrels, this vintage expresses a perfect balance between the fruity notes of apple and pear and the toasted hints of vanilla, sweet spices, and a slight touch of old wood. On the palate, it reveals itself as harmonious and velvety, with a long, enveloping, and persistent finish, capable of telling the story of the Norman terroir. Ideal as a digestif after a substantial meal or paired with aged cheeses, the Calvados 2005 Drouin is a true expression of the territory and artisanal tradition.
