Christian Drouin Cooking Calvados A.O.C. is a French calvados from Calvados Christian Drouin SAS. Developed in the 1990s for cocktails and cooking, it is based on cider apples and perry pears, with pears making up 30%. After simple distillation in a column still, it matures for two years in very old, repeatedly used casks to preserve fresh fruit character. It is light golden, bottled at 40% alcohol in a 200ml bottle sealed with a wooden cork stopper. The nose brings apple aromas with spicy notes and almond. The palate is soft and slightly oily, with ripe apples and pears followed by prune notes. The finish is clear and leaves a fresh mouthfeel.
