Père Magloire Smoky Islay Cask Finish Calvados offers a unique blend of French and Scottish craftsmanship, combining the rich apple profile of Calvados with the distinctive smoky character of Islay whisky. This limited-edition release, with only 6,500 bottles, starts as a VSOP Calvados aged in French oak barrels in Normandy, followed by additional aging in ex-single malt whisky casks from the renowned Islay region. The result is a beautifully balanced spirit that captures the terroir of both Pays d’Auge and Islay.
