Calvados usually falls into one of two camps. Either it is so young and raw that it burns through your throat and gut, eventually requiring reconstructive surgery and confinement in a secure institution, or it is so old, it just tastes like mature Armagnac, nary a hint of apple remaining. This one is orchard fresh, yet aged smooth and rounded. You can still make a gentle `Trou Normand` with this, or savour after dinner from ballon. (CW 09/08/10)
