Lelouvier

Lelouvier Calvados is produced using traditional Norman methods, where carefully selected cider apples are fermented and distilled into a characterful eau-de-vie. After distillation, the Calvados is aged in oak barrels, where it develops its depth, smoothness, and complex aromas.

Calvados is produced in Normandy in northwestern France, an area famous for its apple orchards and long tradition of cider and spirits production.

The cool maritime climate provides optimal conditions for growing apples with high aromatic complexity. The combination of terroir, local apple varieties, and traditional distillation creates the unique character that has made Calvados one of France's most renowned types of spirits.

On the nose, ripe apples, vanilla, dried fruit, caramel, and light spices. The palate is full-bodied and rounded with notes of baked apples, honey, oak, toasted nuts, and warm spices.

Best served at room temperature in a cognac or tulip-shaped glass. Can be enjoyed neat as a digestif or as an accompaniment to cheese, dessert, and coffee. Pairs well with:

• Apple pie and French desserts
• Aged cheeses
• Dark chocolate
• Coffee and cigars
