Fruit above all ! For many years Christian Drouin wondered how to produce a young Calvados that would be well balanced on the palate while offering an intense fruity bouquet. Sélection achieves this harmony by combining the sharp freshness of perry pears with the smoothness of cider apples. The ciders and perries are distilled in a column still and then aged in old, often used casks that preserve the subtle balance of this Calvados with its appetizing fragrance of fresh fruit. Recommended to those who appreciate Calvados as a long drink at aperitif time, it is also well suited to the preparation of cocktails, and for gourmet recipes. "

Light gold in the glass, the scent suggests fresh apple and pear, honeysuckle and vanilla. The palate is light, showing lots of vanilla, hints of fruit and an intriguing, very faint smokiness on the clove-accented finish. Sip or mix.
