Four types of apples (sweet, bittersweet, bitter and acidic) harvested from the orchard of Coeur de Lion estate are used to obtain a juice with a precise balance of sugar tannins and acidity. With lively aromas of fresh cut apples, this spirit is light, with hints of lemon citrus and steel leading to a finish of apple seeds and crushed peppercorn. Recommended to those who appreciate Calvados as a long drink at aperitif time, Coeur de Lion is also well suited to the preparation of cocktails and for gourmet recipes. (from the vintner)
