La Blanche de Gontran
Apple Brandy
Denomination
Apple Brandy
Orchards
A mixture of local varieties of cider apples such as Saint Martin de Pont l’Evêque, Fréquin, Rouge Duret, and Moulin à Vent: Ranging from sweet and bitter-sweet, to bitter and sour. All of these fruits ripen on the tree and are harvested at full maturity.
Elaboration
La Blanche is a young apple brandy, fresh and lively, which like our Calvados comes from the double distilling of our cider. About 14 litres of cider is needed to make one litre of Blanche.
Tasting Notes
Young and impetuous, with its strong fresh apple aromas and its crystalline transparence, this liqueur will liven up and revitalise all your cocktails.
