Celebrating Two Centuries of Artisanal Craftsmanship
Boulard has proudly shared the rich heritage of Calvados Pays d'Auge since its inception in 1825. This year marks a significant milestone as they unveil their 200th Anniversary Cuvée. This exquisite release is not just a drink; it is a heartfelt tribute to the artistry and passion embedded in two centuries of craftsmanship.
A Masterpiece of Maturation
The 200th Anniversary Cuvée reflects meticulous craftsmanship and mastery in wood maturation. Independently blended from Calvados that has aged for at least 18 years, this cuvée offers a luxurious tasting experience that speaks volumes about its creators' attention to detail and dedication to quality.
Meet the Craftmaster Behind the Cuvée
Guided by the skilled hands of Sylvain Pluchard, the seventh Cellar Master at Boulard, this cuvée showcases a legacy of expertise that has been cherished and nurtured through generations. Sylvain describes the creation of this special blend as a decade-long labor of love dedicated to the unique DNA of their Calvados.
"The Bicentenary Cuvée represents a decade of meticulous work, a tribute to 200 years of Maison Boulard and the unique DNA of our Calvados. Every drop of this cuvée embodies the excellence we have nurtured since 1825, and I am proud to pass it on after 30 years with this great House," says Sylvain Pluchard.
An Unforgettable Tasting Experience
Upon tasting, the cuvée provides a beautiful amber color, inviting you to explore its complex offerings. The aroma is filled with hints of caramelized apple, rich spices, wood notes, and a delicate whisper of licorice. When sipped, it reveals an elegant balance of roundness and richness punctuated by flavors of dried fruits, licorice, and subtle wood, leaving a refined finish.

In honor of this historic milestone, only 7,000 bottles of the Anniversary Cuvée have been crafted.
