CALVADOS XO Normandy, France, with Gift Box |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
BOULARD |
Medium deep amber colour. Intense, very spicy, sweetish, brown sugar, cooked squash and baked red apple nose. Dry, very cedary and yet peppery with tangy, faintly sweet, cooked apple flavours that go on and on. A bit of an acquired taste. |

XO Calvados may be enjoyed as you would a fine Cognac or Armagnac – or also in the following recipe. Though this is a Spanish pincho recipe (the Basque term for tapas), it uses Calvados to very good effect. |
