Christian Drouin Pays d'Auge AOC Foursquare Angels 19 yrs 700ml - 1 Bottle

Product Description

After exploring the islands of Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago and Martinique, it is this time in old Foursquare barrels that the latest Calvados from the Drouin house were worked for the 8th edition of the range Experimental by Christian Drouin.

Foursquare is an iconic, family-owned distillery in Barbados. It produces rums of great aromatic expression that are recognized worldwide. A 17-year-old Pays d'Auge Calvados was placed in 8 French oak barrels which had previously contained rums from the Foursquare distillery. After 17 months of maturation in these barrels, the calvados was removed and placed in freshly toasted barrels for an additional 3 months before being bottled "Christian Drouin experimental Foursquare Angels'' is one of the most intense and richest expressions we have We produced in this range. The base was a powerful 17-year-old Calvados.

The rum barrels delivered notes of brown sugar and vanilla, giving the Calvados exceptional complexity and depth. However, upon release from the barrels, I thought that spending three additional months in freshly toasted barrels would further enhance the roundness and structure of this exotic marriage for a perfect balance between these two worlds.
