Père Magloire VSOP Calvados Created back in 1821, this French spirit uses the distilling of apples to create a refreshing sip. The VSOP expression has been aged for at least four years and gives you a heavy apple aroma on the nose with a crisp, fresh flavour bursting on the palate. A well-rounded finish too which works well as an alternative when mixed with tonic water. Available at Waitrose, RRP £22 for 50cl
Żubrówka Vodka Using bison grass from the Białowieża Forest in Northern Poland, this well-known vodka offers plenty of light grass aromas on the nose with a slight earthy note too. Fresh, creamy flavour of grass and vanilla with a slight kick of spice on the palate. Try it in the Bison Martini! Available at MasterOfMalt.com, RRP £18.79
