This was a surprise. It tastes like Calvados. Not sure if it's good for the cocktail or bad for the bottle of Ch. du Breuil Fine Calvados I have that the cocktail actually tastes better!... ^^;

A nice drink I made with Kilchoman Coul Point but surely the recipe quantities would benefit from being rounded to make it more memorable and yield a similar effect.
