About
Made in the heart of the Pays d’Auge region, Domaine Dupont Calvados VSOP is double-distilled and aged for a minimum of five years, with 25% of its oak barrels being new. This traditional process begins with bittersweet and acidic apples, which are pressed, fermented, and distilled using pot stills. Established by Etienne Dupont, the domaine combines heritage methods with insights gained from Cognac to produce high-quality, refined Calvados. Recognised for its smooth complexity, this VSOP is ideal as an aperitif, in cocktails, or as a digestif, showcasing Normandy’s iconic spirit.
