Brands by quality

The closer you follow the recipe, the better the bottle - and the brand changes with it:

  • Boulard
  • ⭐⭐ Père Magloire
  • ⭐⭐⭐ Christian Drouin

In-game the bottle is named after the brand, with Apple Brandy shown on the line beneath.

Get it wrong and it turns sour like acid; nail it for a smooth Calvados.
