Christian Drouin is a well-known and much-adored Calvados producer, but the distillers have put aside the traditional French spirit for something a little different – gin!
They have created a base spirit from 30 varieties of cider apple, and have taken inspiration from the flavours frequently found in Calvados to come up with the botanical recipe, which features lemon, ginger, rose, cardamom, cinnamon, vanilla and almond.
Try with charcuterie, fourme d’ambert, camembert, saint marcellin, brique, manchego, stilton, comté or a big handful of nuts…
