Experience the essence of Normandy with Pierre Huet Calvados AOC Tradition 15 Years, a premium apple brandy crafted in the heart of the Pays d'Auge region. Renowned for its rich history and meticulous craftsmanship, this Calvados is made from over 25 varieties of estate-grown apples, capturing the vibrant character of its terroir.

The journey begins with the natural fermentation of freshly pressed apple juice, matured for 12 months in century-old oak barrels to develop complexity and depth. Distilled twice in traditional copper pot stills, in accordance with strict AOC Pays d'Auge regulations, the resulting spirit is then aged for a minimum of 15 years in oak casks. Some of these casks previously held Pommeau de Normandie, imparting nuanced layers of flavor to the final product.

On the nose, you’re welcomed by a rich aroma of butter toffee and delicate floral notes. The palate delivers a velvety blend of baked apple, caramel, and subtle spice, while the finish lingers with hints of honeysuckle, leaving an impression of elegance and sophistication. This Calvados exemplifies the artistry of the Pierre Huet family, whose estate has been perfecting the craft of apple brandy for over a century.

Perfect for sipping neat, Pierre Huet Calvados AOC Tradition 15 Years is best enjoyed in a tulip-shaped glass at room temperature to fully appreciate its aromatic complexity. With accolades including multiple silver medals at the General Agricultural Competition in Paris, it’s a must-have for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
