Delicious pear, apple and hazelnut
Vanilla and stewed fruits
Claque-Pépin Calvados Old Reserve Bio is an elegant, organically crafted Calvados aged for extended years in French oak to deliver real depth and finesse. Aromas of baked apple, pear and gentle spice lead into a smooth, rounded palate with notes of caramelised fruit, toasted oak and a subtle nutty richness. Beautifully balanced, warm and refined, it’s a superb sipping Calvados that showcases the purity and craftsmanship of Normandy’s orchards. Perfect after dinner or alongside apple-based desserts and fine cheeses.
The name Claque-Pepin comes from a type of apple variety, which when ripe, rattles when shaken. It translates to the 'seeds (pepin) that rattle (claque)'. The property is located in the 17th century farm next to the ancient Château of Serans, formerly the family estate of the Louvet family. Claque-Pepin officially began 13 years ago, however, the current owner, Benoit Louvet, has been immersed in the world of distilling and aging for many years. He began his “apprenticeship” fairly young with his grandfather Vital. After working for a few other Calvados producers as a cellar master, he decided to start his own artisanal production and perpetuate the art of Calvados, cider and poire making, while respecting the Normand traditions and the environment.
