Château du Breuil - Calvados Pays d'Auge - 8 ans d'âge Réserve du Château

Key words: Fruity / Intense / Balance

The spirit : Coming from a blend of several distillates that have aged for a minimum of 8 years in barrels, this Réserve du Château is the perfect symbol of the balance between a young and old Calvados. The ripe apple is indeed very present in tasting while notes of almonds, walnuts and vanilla accompany a supple woodiness in a nice length, creating a very silky and delicate ensemble. A reference Calvados with enchanting fruitiness!

The House : Built in the early 16th century, the Château du Breuil is a place steeped in history. Indeed, since the French Revolution, several owners have succeeded one another and different economic activities have taken over the place: flax spinning, cheese factory, chocolate factory, cider factory, etc. Nevertheless, it is indeed a Calvados distillery that has occupied the premises since 1954. The property now has 42 hectares on which more than 800 varieties of apples grow (sweet, bitter, bittersweet, tart). After having belonged to the Swiss Diwisa group for around thirty years, the company returned to the French flag in April 2020 and extended its activity to other spirits: whiskeys (distilled on site) and rums (refined on site) now part of the range and are of a superb standard. Today, the influence of the brand is international and does honor to French know-how.
