Like Celle 2, the Saint-Pierre street store in Caen is one of the distribution points in France of the Cofféa franchise, founded in 1968 at Le Havre, where historically ships and their coffee shipments from South America. With over establishments in France, today is the first French brand specialised in coffee, tea, infusions, chocolate and sweet gifts. From Africa and South America, coffee, roasted on-site, is packed in grains, but also in Nespresso-compatible capsules and flexible uncomfortable. Cofféa is also about teas (one surprising Earl Grey Green!) in leaves, green, white or black, nature and perfumed, in bulk or warm in beautiful boxes. Not forgetting chocolate, 100% pure cocoa. Finally, because we're not going to drink in his shoe, Cofféa, it's also a vast choice of cups, teapots and coffee makers, especially piston makers.

It's finally this famous sign for every tea lover who respects himself! Set in the heart of the city centre, the Palais des Thés opened last year in Caen. Whether you are novices, experts or simply curious, you are all welcome. Discovery of timelines like new "raw", wise advice, what matters is that it is done with passion. Because tea is not just hot water, it's a clever mixture that deserves time to appreciate all flavourings and subtleties. To help you in your initiation, the reception starts with a tasting. Then let yourself be guided by your senses and suggestions that will be made, humbly, savour. Take the time, like good wine, the tea must be chosen carefully and especially according to your tastes! To do this, trust the team that will be listening to you, they are connoisseurs of knowledge. Finally, to perfect all of this, a host of accessories are available to you like these beautiful washi paper storage boxes (that of origami) or cherry bark. Tea time will soon have no secrets for you!

Among the Barons, coffee is a family story, even a generational one, since the tribe, coming from Le Havre, is originally an expert in imported green coffees. For more than 20 years, the Baron couple has been crossing the region to supply coffee shops, hotels, and restaurants with its beans. In 2012, they passed the milestone of sales to individuals, and the Equemauville boutique has since grown steadily: delicatessen, and even a liquor license for the bar!

What's more, Maxime is surrounded by a crack team: Lukas the ceramist, Mathieu the wine merchant, Sébastien the pastry chef and caterer. In short, the ideal place to spend a convivial moment with people who love their craft and respect their products.
