Generally spoken, Calvados could be described as "apple brandy from Normandy". But this rather sober formulation does not do it justice in any way. As with many other distillates, there is a very special philosophy behind Calvados.
First of all, there are the 11 departments in Normandy, which are the only ones that have the right to use the name "Calvados". There are only exactly 48 varieties of apples that are allowed to be produced - for comparison: in Europe alone there are almost 20,000 varieties of apples. These apples are then pressed into cider after harvesting - already here the recipe plays a special role: exactly 40% bitter or bittersweet, 40% sweet and 20% sour apples are used to achieve the desired taste. The cider obtained is quite tasty, with a maximum of 5% alcohol but still too weak for the (French) palate.So the cider is now fermented in tanks. Depending on the department and taste of the distiller, this takes between 21 and 48 days.
Only then is the actual calvados distilled. In a special procedure it gets its own special note, which is further refined by the storage in wooden barrels.
The barrel maturation lasts at least two, in some cases even many more years. The longer the storage in wooden barrels (which are also made exclusively from French oak), the more aromatic the calvados becomes. The aromas of chocolate, light smoke and walnut speak for themselves and make Calvados a distillate that has maintained its importance for decades - and will continue to do so in the future.
Calvados is a popular aperitif or digestif. In France calvados is also often drunk between two courses of a larger menu. The "trou normand" (Norman hole) is supposed to clean up the stomach and make room for the next courses, in other words, to practically make a "hole" in the stomach.By default, the barrels are equipped with a used wooden or plastic bung. If you want a new silicone bung, you can order it under accessories (type standard - C16).
Used wooden barrels: Notches in the wood or, in certain circumstances, an uneven base, do not constitute a quality defect, but stem from the idiosyncrasies of the production method and the prior use of the barrels. The usage of the barrel will not be affected by those! The barrels are very carefully checked by us at the exit control against sensor and technical errors. We assume no liability for cracks or splits that occur during maturation. A possible and a reasonable repair is not under guarantee.

Freshly emptied rum barrels (aged for 6 to 12 months with rum from the Dominican Republic)New barrels made from European oak, lightly toasted and steamed like a white wine barrel before filling. All barrels are stored in Bad Dürkheim in our large warehouse and are filled with high-quality rum that we source from the Caribbean.Up to 20 litres incl. barrel rack.Flavor: tropical fruits and brown sugarThe Dominican Republic is renowned for its high-quality rum, which develops a unique flavor due to the use of special oak casks, often previously used for bourbon or whiskey, and the tropical aging conditions. Rum is made from sugarcane molasses, fermented, distilled, and aged in casks, where a portion of the rum evaporates (known as the “angel’s share”), making the remaining rum more concentrated. Rum is an important part of Dominican culture, enjoyed both neat and in cocktails.Barrel is supplied with wooden or silicone bung.Pre-used wooden barrels: Notches in the wood, external stress cracks or possibly an uneven bottom are not quality defects, but are rather determined by the nature of the construction and the previous use of the barrels.

This 190-liter wooden barrel has had a fascinating journey. It was first used to mature US bourbon, which is known for its sweet, spicy aromas. After the bourbon was bottled, the barrel was sent to the Dominican Republic, where it was filled with molasses-based rum.By maturing in the former bourbon barrel, the rum absorbed the remaining vanilla and caramel notes of the bourbon, giving it additional depth and complexity. At the same time, the rum developed its own aromas of tropical fruit and brown sugar.The result is a harmonious rum that combines the best qualities of both worlds. This special storage demonstrates how thoughtful barrel storage can enrich the flavor profile of a distillate and is a must for lovers of high-quality spirits.Pre-used wooden barrels: Notches in the wood, external stress cracks or possibly an uneven base are not quality defects, but are rather determined by the nature of the construction and the previous use of the barrels.
