点评:In 2008, I had stopped into this small liquor store that features and highlights Calvados and told the proprietor that I enjoyed Calvados but did not really know much about the different varieties. He sat me down and for the next hour and a half, educated my palate via taste-testing different vintages of Calvados from a variety of producers. I left there with a 50-year-old special bottle of Calvados and a big contented smile on my face. 15 years later, on a return trip to Honfleur with my wife, I wanted to see if this small Calvados specialty store was still in existence. Thankfully, we discovered that it is and is now owned and run by the daughter of the gentleman I had met and was my Calvados teacher back in 2008. After relating my story to her, she graciously offered me and my wife a similar, albeit less involved taste test, which we greatly appreciated and enjoyed. Of course, I did not leave until I had once again purchased a special bottle of vintage Calvados. For anyone who loves Calvados and wants to learn more about this delicious apple brandy, this is the place to visit and patronize.
翻译:2008年,我走进一家以卡尔瓦多斯为主的小酒类商店,告诉店主我喜欢卡尔瓦多斯,但对不同的品种不太了解。他让我坐下,在接下来的一个半小时里,通过品尝来自不同生产商的不同年份的卡尔瓦多斯苹果酒来教育我的味觉。我带着一瓶有 50 年历史的特制卡尔瓦多斯苹果酒离开那里,脸上挂满了满足的笑容。 15年后,当我和妻子回翁弗勒尔时,我想看看这家小小的卡尔瓦多斯专卖店是否还存在。值得庆幸的是,我们发现它现在是由我在 2008 年认识的一位绅士的女儿拥有和经营的,这位绅士是我 2008 年的卡尔瓦多斯葡萄酒老师。在向她讲述了我的故事后,她慷慨地向我和我的妻子提供了一个类似的,尽管较少的涉及味觉测试,我们非常赞赏和享受。当然,直到我再次购买了一瓶特殊的年份卡尔瓦多斯葡萄酒后,我才离开。对于任何喜爱卡尔瓦多斯并想进一步了解这种美味苹果白兰地的人来说,这里是值得参观和光顾的地方。
