Why is Calvados aged?
Ageing allows the Calvados to develop firstly in colour, and then its aromas and length on the palate. A younger Calvados will tend to have a straw yellow hue and will develop very distinct fruit or floral aromas. An old Calvados will, on the other hand, have a more amber colour, reminiscent of mahogany, and will develop a more complex range of aromas with a mixture of candied fruit, dried nuts, caramel or chocolate notes.
