Busnel 12 Year Old X.O. Hors d'Age Calvados

43% ABV, 750 ml, aged for at least 12 years in Oak  Casks.

"Carefully, calmly and precisely, Busnel's distillers and cellar masters distill and blend traditional Calvados using their unique expertise. Patient and persistent, they know that a product with such a fine ancestry deserves special attention and thorough care over a number of years. When you taste Busnel Calvados, you discover unique spirits that combine balance, carefully judged proportions and harmonious flavors."

"Opening nosings offer concentrated oak, paraffin/melted candle and baked apple; bouquet expands incrementally as raisiny/pruny/dried red fruit and cocoa override the wood and wax aromas. Palate entry is long, properly oily and full-bodied; the flavor profile turns raisiny, chocolaty and coffee-like, with just a hint of seared pork sausage. Finishes long, fat, buttery and fruity." 90-95 Points Wine Enthusiast
