About this bottle
Eric Bordelet already produces some of Normandy's most sought out cider, and though he is now distilling his own product, it is not quite ready for release. He has selected this barrel from his neighbor, Henri Bernard Beudin, who holds to the strictest values. No water was added to the used Chenin Blanc wine barrels at any point of the spirit's life, and the resulting Calvados was bottled unfiltered and without any additives. Even the fairly common use of cleaning the barrels with sulfur dioxide was eschewed and distillation took place on an old-fashioned, single-run, column-still. Only 744 half bottles produced!

Fantastic evolution from fresh apples to smoke. Retains power and youth despite its old age.
