Boulard X.O. Auguste Calvados Pays d'Auge
Produced by the Boulard family in the town of Coquainvilliers in French Normandy since setting up the operation in 1825, Calvados Boulard began as a cider and calvados distillery. Founded by Pierre-Auguste Boulard who was one of the pioneers of the calvados category, the distillery and its distribution expanded considerably during the 20th century, reaching Europe and Africa in the 30s and the USA, Canada, and Scandinavia in 1947. The Boulard family backed an initiative in 1942 that would lead to the creation of the AOC ― Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée (Controlled Designation of Origin) ― Calvados Pays d'Auge. Boulard's Luxury Collection features their finest work and the Auguste XO expression is no exception. Celebrating the founder of the maison, Pierre-Auguste Boulard, it's a showcase of the Cellar Master's skill. You'll find notes of apple, vanilla, honey, caramel, and toasted almonds in this exquisite 80-proof expression.
