TASTING NOTES:
The Epicurean Calvados Limited Edition greets the palate with fresh, vibrant, and citrusy notes, followed by the crispness of apple drops, the sweetness of juicy pears, and the comforting warmth of toffee undertones.
Scott Morrison, Brand Manager commented:
“Our belief is that flavour is created throughout the whisky-making process, but it’s during the interaction between spirit and wood in maturation where it truly flourishes. This special bottling is a testament to that belief, with the Calvados casks imparting rich, nuanced flavours that elevate our Lowland Malt to new heights”.
The Epicurean Calvados Limited Edition is available in select markets around the world, retailing for £65.00 / €77.00.
