Berneroy VSOP Calvados 40%

Notes - Berneroy is situated in the heart of the Pays d'Auge region in Northern France. Cider is produced which is then double distilled in pot stills which gives a smooth spirit that greatly improves with oak ageing. The VSOP is a blend of Calvados which has been aged for approximately 8 years of age in Limousin oak casks. It has a fruity nose of stewed apples with a smooth and spicy finish.Calvados is the basis of the tradition of le trou Normand, or "the Norman hole". This is a small drink of Calvados taken between courses in a very long meal, sometimes with apple sorbet, supposed to re-awaken the appetite. This replaces the Berneroy No 8.
