What it tastes like.

After letting it age for 3 years in oak barrels, this Calvados still offers all of the vigor and freshness of a young spirit. Its green apple aromas are still very present and reveal all their flavour in your cocktails and sorbets. It's an expression of pure apple!

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.

Why Caravan backs Calvados Père Jules

Normandy

"Jules Desfrièches founded the estate in 1919 at Saint-Désir-de-Lisieux, in the heart of the Pays d'Auge. The family has worked through five generations, expanding the orchard to roughly 45 hectares planted with traditional Normandy cider apple varieties — the bittersweet and bittersharp varieties used for cider and Calvados, rather than dessert apples.
