| Description: | Lemorton 1980 Domfrontais Calvados This 1980 has a deep amber color and a warm and inviting aroma set of preserved red apple, spice and an ethereal top note of white pear. The palate is multilayered, with notes of spice, a hint of wood smoke and a concentrated burst of pear fruit that glides along the long finish. This was bottled in late 2017, making this a truly rare 37 year-old spirit. We hope you enjoy as you think of how much has changed while this spirit was resting patiently in barrel. D&M Tasting Notes The Lemorton family have been making cider and distilling Calvados since the late 1800s. Didier Lemorton represents the sixth generation making the family's spirits, and many of their trees are more than 150 years old. They are not a monoculture producer, and along with their apple and pear production they have always raised cows. The breed they use is called the Normand beloved for the rich milk they produce. This raw ingredient is sold by the Lemortons to be used in the beloved butterfat of Normandy, going into Camembert, Pont l'Eveque, Livarot cheeses as well as for cream, yogurt, butter and caramel.
