Staff Pick Notes

Jean-Francois Guillouet is the 7th generation of his family to produce Calvados on their estate in the French border region of, Suisse-Normand. As grower producers, there are about 30 varieties of apples are grown on the property, predominantly from the sweet and bittersweet categories. The soil is a perfect loamy combination of silt and clay. Distilled from 100% apple Cider is naturally fermented sur lie in neutral tanks for 8–12 months before distillation in a traditional, wood-fired copper column still. The 'Hors D'Age' is a blend of vintages, ranging from 6 to 30+ years of resting in old French oak barrels. The result is a long sipping, effervescent spirit with aromas of deep green apple, honey, and a touch of almond.
