What is Calvados?
Calvados is carefully distilled in Normandy from dry cider made from special apple varieties, aged in French Oak barrels then blended and bottled for the connoisseur.

The book is a first in comprehensive reporting in English on the facts, the history, the myths and secrets, as well as how to taste, judge and enjoy this unique spirit. A phone and address directory of the producers, both large and small, tasting notes, food and cigar pairing, recipes and a gastronomic tour guide are included.

"Your book Calvados is magnificient - and I speak as an eau-de-vie enthusiast since the Liberation of Normandy in World War II! Accurate, beautifully written, informative and very attractive..."
Hugo Dunn-Meynell, writer and former chairman of the International Wine and Food Society.
