Selection is different from all of the other Coeur de Lion Calvados; it is the only one produced in the heartof Domfrontais. The flavors of Domfrontais Calavados are deeply influenced by utilizing a high proportion ofpears (30% Minimum) in the cider which is then distilled into eau de vie. As soon as you pull the cork the scentof apples, stewed in cider, fortified with chunks of dried pear begin to fill the room. The taste is dominated byfruit, soda bread with stewed apples (baked in vigorous spice), pear tarts and peaches flambé which all build toa piquant, tangy lounging finish that is chock full of racy spice. This would be a superb aperitif or an excellent 'trou normand’ ('Norman break'-- a glass of calvados between meal courses to refresh you!).
