Review Date: 11/2018More proof that younger Calvados have a purity and depth missing from many unaged spirts. Three years old, and greenish-yellow in color, this brandy has a gregarious nose, with aromas of apple pie and even pineapple turnover. But on the palate, there is both juicy acidity and an overarching roundness, still at the relatively high alcohol level. Fresh, dry, truly drinkable, both neat and in cocktails. A great value.

Notes
The wonderful calvados produced by the Giard Family is one of the regions most traditional and well loved. This special selections developed by Charles Neal specifically with the bartender in mind is proof that Calvados needint be old to be delicious. Aged entirely in large old oak barrels and bottled at an exhilerating 88 proof, the Montreuil selection is supple enough to be sipped, but sings in any cocktail calling for apple brandy or calvados.
