- 2/3 of apple must made from varieties as Fréquin Rouge, Binet Rouge, Bisquet et Douce Moën.
- And 1/3 of one-year-old-Calvados Pays d’Auge, that titrates between 68% and 70% alcohol.
Our Pommeau ages 36 to 48 months in oak barrels (14 months minimum authorized by the legislation)
Bright and clear, a beautiful amber color and smelling fruits. Reveals subtle aromas of cooked fruit, dried fruit, prunes, cherry and also almond cocoa and honey.

For cooking, it can be used from starter to dessert, to make sauces or with poultry, fish and scallop.

Fruity alcohol particularly recommended to strong « eaux de vie » lovers.
- Can be used as a basis for cocktails.

Old Calvados AOC Pays d'Auge Pierre Huet
This young Calvados has been kept in oak barrels for 4 years.
Product combining wood and apple flavours.
Caramelized apple, lighty woody when smelling. Tasting: firstly very fresh with dominating apple, finally spicy.
This precious balance between wood and apple is really appreciated as a « Trou Normand » (in the middle of the meal) alone or with an apple sorbet.
CALVADOS AOC PAYS D'AUGE VIEILLE RESERVE 8 YEARS
This Calvados has been kept in oak barrels for 8 years.
Its colour is clear; it is fine and floral, fresh and light with first notes of burned apple. In the second nose, persistent notes reminding of fresh green apple. The palate is mineral, slightly peppery and minty. The finish on the palate is reminiscent of the salted butter caramel.
At the end of the meal, this Calvados is really appreciated for its subtle aromatic taste and its length.
This is the youngest Calvados of the HUET range of Calvados.
Calvados AOC Pays d'Auge Hors d'Age 12 years
This calvados kept 11 years in oak barrels is targeted at real alcohol connoisseurs. This is a powerful calvados. Really appreciated thanks to the good compromise between woody and fruity flavour.
To be consumed as an after-dinner drink at room temperature.
