Cognac and Armagnac are world-renowned brandy regions, and they are certified and protected by the AOC Origin Protection System in France. In fact, in addition to Cognac and Armagnac, there is also an AOC-certified brandy in France, which is Calvados. The brandy produced in Calvados is based on apples and belongs to the category of fruit brandy, which is considered to be the highest quality apple brandy in the world.
Founded in 1821 to specialize in the production of apple brandy, Father Marlon is located in the Auge district of the Calvados department, the first region in France to produce apple brandy. Father Marlon is the best-selling apple brandy brand in France, with 70% of its revenue coming from exports, making it the undisputed leading apple brandy brand in the world.
Unfortunately, apple brandy is still a niche spirit in the country, so there are very few options to choose from, and Father Malone only sells a Fine-V.S grade apple brandy. This apple brandy is a continuous distillation process that takes native Normandy apples, makes them into cider and then distills them, and is aged in oak barrels for more than 2 years. On the Jingdong platform, the price difference of Father Malone is large, and it is generally reasonable to start at a price of about 200 yuan.
