Calvados Morin Hors D'age 15 Years
France - Normandy - Ivry la Bataille

The flavor is the result of a wise combination of various soils, barrels, apples that are grown on different terroirs.

This special blend is aged 15 years in Limousin oak barrels. It boasts a beautiful color with glints of amber. It reveals smooth toastiness and candied fruit notes. Powerful, round and full-bodied with balanced tannins, fragrances of ripe and caramelized apples, it makes a great aperitif or digestif. Also a fine accompaniment to roast fowl or sole.

Pairings

The Calvados Morin can be enjoyed as an aperitif, during a meal or as an after dinner digestif.
Used in many cocktails, calvados adds a surprisingly festive touch. It can also accompany sole fillets, and is delicious with roast fowl and in patisseries.
Amateurs like to drink it after the meal as a digestif. Served in a brandy or tulip glass, it will gently warm up to reveal its complete bouquet. It should be tasted in small mouthfuls giving it time to delight the taste buds. Once the glass is empty, it will still give off lingering notes of wood, candied fruit and spice.
