About Berneroy Calvados

Berneroy is a French calvados house from Pays d'Auge in Normandy, one of the region's most respected appellations for apple brandy. For newcomers, it's an approachable, apple-sweet introduction to calvados; for connoisseurs, one of the classic Pays d'Auge houses that insists on double distillation and traditional cask aging.

History & Background

The house traces its roots back to 1912 and has since specialized in calvados distilled according to traditional Pays d'Auge methods. Pays d'Auge is the only calvados appellation that requires double distillation in traditional Charente-style stills, a stricter standard than the broader Calvados AOC designation. For over a century, Berneroy's master blenders have carried on this craft approach, turning apples from Norman orchards into cider before distilling and aging it in oak casks for years.

Production & Style

The Calvados is distilled twice from pressed apple and pear must and then aged in oak casks for several years.

Signature Style

Apple-Fruity, Full-Bodied, Spiced
The flavor offers a full-bodied, apple-fruity character with a touch of spice from the cask aging.
