Big flavors of apple and pear cider, clearly holding their character through the influence of the cask, here bringing flamed orange peel, toasted cinnamon, and a hint of fresh vanilla. The finish is long and complex, with a slight bitter tannin. (Finalist) (Top 100) - 2022 ULTIMATE SPIRITS CHALLENGE ... More details

The aroma of this brandy is pure concentrated vanilla richness, while the palate is more drying and complex. Soft vanilla and toffee give way to hints of red fruit, orange peel and oak, leading into a long finish marked by cinnamon and clove.
Winery
This limited edition is a tribute to Japan, one of the very first asian countries to which Boulard has exported its calvados. This XO is a blend of Calvados Pays d'Auge aged in French oak barrels in our cellar in Normandy before a finish of several weeks in new japanese casks of Mizunara oak. This oak is endemic of the japanese archipelago and is used to age the best japanese whiskeys. Boulard is the first Calvados house to associate it with its eaux-de-vie. Colour: Bright amber. Nose: Bouquet with notes of incense, green wood, tobacco, coffee and linden. Palate: Generous with hints of red fruits, green hazelnuts and candied apple. Finale: Complex, flavour of stewed fruits and slightly peppery.
