Coquerel Fine is a typical, run-of-the-mill Calvados. It is heavy on the apples and quite young. I would consider this more of a cocktail Calvados then a drinking neat one, but I'm sure there are much worse choices out there. The nose is very whiskey like, with oak leading the way. On the palate I got some clove, honey and vanilla, with a faint hint of apple. The finish is short and there is a bit of burn which is not surprising with how young the spirit is. As a cocktail ingredient, I would say this is closer to a 3, but neat it's more of a 2, hence the 2.5 rating. It's not bad though, just nothing thrilling and for the whiskey drinker it may actually be more up their alley.
