Flavour notes

The aroma first brings roasted apple and citrus fruit, then opens into peppery notes with spice, floral touches and wormwood.

On the palate it starts full and harmonious. Apple sweetness gives roundness, while the bitter tones of cinchona and mugwort add structure and lift. The finish is generous, elegant and lively, with a spicy aromatic edge that carries through.

Product info about Abc De Christian Drouin

ABC de Christian Drouin is a French aperitif built around the apple, yet it takes its inspiration from the methods of classic vermouth rather than staying within the familiar world of cider or Calvados. The Drouin family has been passionate about cider apples for three generations, using them for cider, Pommeau, Calvados and gin. Here, Guillaume Drouin gives that apple heritage a different voice by combining apple must with young Calvados.

ABC stands for Apéritif à base de Calvados. After blending, the drink continues its maturation in oak and is aromatised with a mix of herbs and botanicals, including mugwort, orange, cinnamon, elderflower and yuzu. The result is an aromatic aperitif where apple sweetness, spice, citrus brightness and a measured bitter edge all have their place.

At Drankenshop Broekmans, we see this as a particularly engaging bottle for aperitif drinkers who enjoy something layered and contemporary. It was fine-tuned together with seven experienced bartenders and mixologists, and that shows in its versatility: served chilled, it works as an aperitif in its own right, while its apple-and-herbal structure also makes it useful in cocktails.

The aroma first brings roasted apple and citrus fruit, then opens into peppery notes with spice, floral touches and wormwood.

On the palate it starts full and harmonious. Apple sweetness gives roundness, while the bitter tones of cinchona and mugwort add structure and lift. The finish is generous, elegant and lively, with a spicy aromatic edge that carries through.

About CHRISTIAN DROUIN

When Christian Drouin (the father) acquired Fiefs Sainte-Anne on the Gonneville hills near Honfleur in 1960, he had no idea how big his surname would become in the world of Calvados. He planted apple trees on his land and soon the desire to produce calvados too grew. Christian was a bold and enterprising man, working for the first 20 years to refine his distillates of apple cider. The calvados produced in those years is aged in different types of barrels, which beforehand include sherry, port or calvados, and rest for years in the old farm buildings. Christian also acquires several lots of old calvados from other reputable makers. During this period, Drouin also wins his first medals at regional competitions and in Paris.

Son Christian joins his father in the business in 1969, but it is not until 1979 that it is decided that the stocks are large enough to enter the market. Immediately, an international approach is adopted and a focus on older and higher-quality calvados than had previously been the norm in the industry. This approach paid off and Calvados Drouin became a fixture in the better restaurants and hotels around the world. In 1991, production moved to another 18th-century farmhouse in Coudray-Rabut.

In 2004, the third generation emerges. Guillaume Drouin is an agronomic engineer and oenologist. He first took charge of the export side of the business for 5 years, before taking over first production and then general management. to this day, Guillaume and his father Christian still realise the assemblages of the current products together.
