Calvados is an apple Brandy from Normandy, France. Menorval Prestige is aged for 2-3 years in oak casks to mellow it into a smooth, fresh spirit with pure red apple aromas and flavors followed by a whiff of toffee and vanilla. Great as an after dinner digestif but at a price that can be used in recipes like a classic braised chicken with apples and Calvados.

Made with brandies aged two to three years, this Calvados features a ripe pear aroma. It's a bit tannic and drying, with a resin-like note up front that mellows into chamomile tea and sandalwood, plus baked pear and baking spice on the finish.

This is the youngest and fruitiest Calvados in our range. Blended from 100% Pays d'Auge Calvados, it is true to the region, fresh and fruity, with a pronounced apple nose and finish. The fruit and fire are harmonious. This is the blend we recommend for cooking… As the alcohol leaves, the fresh fruit remains. It is especially good with pastries.
