I don't have a clue what calvados is. 
Do you drink it, eat it, or pet it? Sounds pretty foreign if you ask me.

Not very pirate-like? My Father and Grandfather served alongside our good Captain all their lives... and if 
is good enough for them, then it's good enough for me!
Well, not really... but you can make some fairly good mixes using I'm sure!

I looked it up. It's french brandy. Sounds like something this crew would want.

It's made from fermented apples ...the fortification process is unique, though .... they don't distill it ...they freeze it and filter off the ice

Do you know EVERYTHING???? You make me crazy, but I still love you! 
Anyway, the apple brandy sounds yummy! Apple brandy and brie!

I believe calvados originates from Normandy and Brittany. It is really rather delicious, it goes well on apple filled pancakes too with lashings of whipped cream.

A couple of posts ago you said calvados originated in Normandy and
Brittany. Isn't she a bit young to be coming up with that kind of thing

Caerwynn? She sounded like she knew what she was talking about: apple pancakes drowned in calvados and smothered with lashings of whipped cream. Oh yum!
I keep starting a diet. Every morning I start it.
