In The Art of Calvados, now available in English for the first time, second-generation Calvados producer Christian Drouin unveils the many secrets of the iconic Norman apple brandy. From the Middle Ages to Paris' finest modern cocktail bars, Drouin traces the history, culture, and stories of one of the world's most sustainable spirits. A detailed account of how Calvados is produced will fascinate those with a special interest in distilled spirits and French cuisine, while the history of its role in the social, political, culinary and economic life of northern France will interest history buffs.

Drouin devotes particular attention to the various modes of consumption, from the traditional caf©-calva and trou Normand to classic and modern cocktails. More than 40 cocktail recipes sourced from the world's best bartenders provide endless inspiration for mixing and experimentation, and nearly a dozen easy-to-prepare recipes for dishes featuring Calvados evoke the grand culinary tradition of Normandy.
