In the region of Normandy apples are pressed into cider, from which this distinctive Eau de Vie originates. The Berneroys are masters of distillation and blending, and they have a keen eye for all the small things that are involved in the process of making their Calvados live up to its reputation. It is Grande, Oui Grande, we tell you.
Berneroy Calvados XO is made from apple must (juice) of over 180 named apple varieties. This juice is then fermented for a minimum period of four weeks before being once distilled in an antique copper column. Single distillation makes the Berneroy Calvados fruitier and distinctly more aromatic than some of its counterparts. It is aged for up to 25 years in casks made of Limousin oak.

Cognac is a form of distilled Brandy. For a spirit to be labeled Cognac, it must be made from specified grapes, of which Ugni Blanc is the one most widely used. It must be twice distilled in copper pot stills and aged at least two years in French oak barrels from Limousin or Tronçais.
There are three different qualities of Cognac recognized by law: V.S. (very special), V.S.O.P. (Very Superior Old Pale), and X.O. (Extra Old).
The wine used for Cognac is very dry, acidic, and thin but excellent for distillation and aging.
Believe it or not, the French aren’t all that fond of Cognac. In fact, they export nearly 90% of their production.
There are three primary grades of Cognac recognized by law: V.S., V.S.O.P., and X.O, but we also know Napoléon, XXO, and Hors d'âge.
Cognac, named after the town of Cognac in France, is a variety of brandy (distilled wine). It is only produced in the wine-growing region surrounding this town.
