We are near Domfront in Normandy visiting a beautiful house of Calvados.

We have tasted some fantastic calvados Domfrontais made of at least 30% pear to respect the AOC. 

Calvados Domfrontais is original by the high percentage of poiré pears used along with cider apples; the soil (schist and granite) and the distillation process (single-pass distillation) also contribute to its individual character. Domfront Calvados differs from other Calvados appellations through its floral and fruity character and its mineral characteristics.
