Christian Drouin Pommeaux de Normandie

750 mL
Item # 29039

The famous yet hard to find Pommeau de Normandie is made with the apple cider of the region fortified with the legendary apple brandy known as Calvados. This offering from the venerable Drouin estate delivers all the goods for an incomparable value. The nose displays a classic interplay of fresh apple aromas mixed with sweet spice box and earth driven richness. This is so easy to drink and perhaps the most versatile beverage we've come across.

Staff Pick Notes

Pommeau is crafted by blending Full Proof, newly made Calvados with a cider-apple juice. The cider-apple must is mixed before fermentation with Calvados in the proportion 3/4 must to 1/4 Calvados. As this smooth and natural fermentation ends, the new spirits is aged for 3 to 4 years in oak barrels. The result is a 17% abv elixir that is immensely enjoyable. Notes of a freshly baked, rustic apple pie prevail. Moderately sweet with hints of honey, vanilla, and star anise. This is a dram I can enjoy on the couch after a days work, but equally as enjoyable in the afternoons, serving and sipping alongside friends.
