Production
Château du Breuil is a renowned producer of Calvados, a type of apple brandy that originates from the Normandy region of France. With a rich history dating back to the 16th century, the Château has evolved into a distillery that produces some of the finest Calvados in the world. The production process involves the careful selection of apples, fermentation, distillation, and aging, all of which contribute to the Calvados' distinctive amber color and complex flavor profile.
