Christian Drouin Pommeau de Normandie

Pommeau is meticulously crafted by blending Calvados with cider-apple juice. The must, or cider-apple juice, is united with Calvados in a pre-fermentation mixture, maintaining a proportion of 3/4 must to 1/4 65° Calvados. The essential mellowness of this aperitif is achieved through a patient aging process in oak casks. With a robust flavor profile, this aperitif boasts a strength ranging from 16° to 18° and is best savored when served chilled in a tulip glass.

This  finds its perfect companionship with a scooped-out melon, foie gras, or an apple dessert. Highly regarded for its versatility, it serves as an excellent base for cocktails. Beyond the glass, Pommeau de Normandie "Coeur de Lion" elevates culinary experiences, proving to be a remarkable ingredient in sauces and creams. Described as exuberantly fruity, the Pommeau captivates the palate with its easy-drinking quality, despite its 17% alcohol content. In the mouth, it unveils refreshing notes alongside the captivating aroma of baked apples and buttery brown sugar, creating a truly fascinating experience.
