Since the early 1960s, three generations of the Drouin family have been growing apples, making cider, distilling spirit and patiently ageing it to become absolutely first-class Calvados. For our Berry Bros. & Rudd Calvados primarily refill casks are used which allows the gentle beauty of the orchards to shine though, unimpeded by a surfeit of wood. Effervescent cider on the nose combines with subtle spice and soft oak as the palate progresses. The finish leaves no doubt as to the painstaking attention to detail at every step of the production: it’s every bit as satisfying as sinking one’s teeth into a crunchy Norman pomme!
