Christian Drouin XO Calvados Pays d’Auge
$141.99
Baked apple and warm spice open the nose, with flowers, almond and polished oak developing underneath. The palate is dense and rounded, bringing ripe orchard fruit together with vanilla, gentle tannin and the nutty complexity of long ageing in old Cognac casks. A subtle rancio note adds savoury depth without obscuring the fruit. The finish is long, composed and warmly spiced, carrying apple, oak and toasted nuts. Serve neat after dinner at cool room temperature.

About Christian Drouin
In 1960, Christian Drouin senior bought Fiefs Sainte-Anne near Honfleur and began distilling cider apples with Pierre Pivet. For almost twenty years, he built stocks in old Sherry, Port and Calvados casks without selling the spirit. His son Christian joined in 1969, and the family began selling Calvados in 1979.
Guillaume Drouin joined in 2004 after training in agronomy and winemaking, later taking responsibility for production and management. Christian and Guillaume taste every cask each year to decide which blends and vintages need longer ageing. Calvados remains the house’s focus, alongside cider, unaged apple spirit and gin.
