Domaine du Coquerel — Calvados, Gin, and Whisky from Normandy

AOC CALVADOS, UNCOMPROMISING, SINCE 1937

Authentic by Nature, Innovative by Conviction.

Discover

40+ AOC VARIETIES

Bitter, sweet, bittersweet, and tart apples. Harvested from the ground, in our un-irrigated orchards in Normandy.

END-TO-END CRAFTSMANSHIP

100% natural fermentation. Distillation on lees in our three copper columns. Nothing is outsourced, nothing is delegated.

6 CELLARS, AS LONG AS IT TAKES

French oak barrels: ex-Cognac, Pineau, Port, Rum, Wines. The wood enhances the apple, it never masks it.

The gesture

From Orchard to Bottle

At Domaine du Coquerel, we control every step, from orchard to bottle. Over forty apple varieties, long natural fermentations without added yeasts, column distillation over an open flame, and extended aging in French oak.

Per bottle, compared to an average of 13 liters for a whisky.
AOC orchards without irrigation, fermentation without added water, boreholes under the distillery.

AN ECOSYSTEM
