Normandie Calvados Brandy Barrel Finish

Normandie is a limited‑edition, cross‑continental conversation in a glass: five seasoned Calvados casks from the storied Christian Drouin house—where three generations of meticulous craftsmanship have earned more than 289 gold medals—made the journey from Normandy to Bardstown to embrace a curated bourbon blend. After a 28‑month slumber, the whiskey settled into medium‑toast American oak, coaxing out layers of caramel, spice and roasted almond. The result is an elegant confluence of crisp orchard fruit and velvety bourbon sweetness accented by gentle wood smoke and a whisper of vanilla. Normandie is less a finish and more a transformation—an elevated marriage of French tradition and American craft.
