Massenez Pomme Prisonniere Calvados ( Prisoner Apple ) (700 ml)

Emblematic of the Massenez's know-how, the Prionere Apple is part of he prestigious Signature range. The bottle is simply attached to the pear tree in flower... so the fruit develops inside the bottle. When it ripens, the fruit and the bottle are carefully detached. Then the bottles are cleaned and filled with Calvados. Long year of meceration gently blend the flavours of the apple and the spirit.

Aspect

Intense gold... and more and more amber with maceration.

Nose

Very fruity:at frist, very fresh fruity notes,quickly folloowed by the aromas of cooked fruits.

Palate

The union of the fruit added with its Eau-de-vie gives such aromas... Reminder of the intensityy of cider aromas, with smooth, classic apple-brandy flavours.

Serve it over ice or neat, chilled, eather after a meal or between courses,as is the custom in Normandy. Also delicious in cocktails or in some recipes based on cooked apples (baked apples,apple tart... or also with Camembert cheese )!
