Liquor stores Brittany

Called Lambig into Cornwall, cider brandy is obtained by the distillation of locally produced cider with ancestral recipes and oak tree between 5 to 10 years. Lambig offers this distinctive colour: a slightly amber dress with delicious fruit flavours. Nothing so wonderfuk as taking it for digestif. Otherwise, do not hesitate to takeit with a sorbet, to spice-up a sauce for example, or fish soup. You can also use it for buckling your dishes!

The fruit of a long journey through passion and a taste for authenticity, La Maison Kystin offers a sublime variety of traditional, innovative and exceptional ciders and spirits inspired by Celtic heritage. Ice cider, traditional cider cuvée Opalyne, Hérytage brandy, cuvée Kalysïe, cuvée Black Kalysïe (perry, ginger and vodka), without forgetting the Cuvée XVII or the perfect harmony between apple and chestnut, born from seven long years of experimentation... So many prestigious vintages and subtle alchemies, to savor or to offer.

This distillery is a family farm specializing in the cultivation of cider apple trees. As an extension of this production activity, Nicolas Poirier and his team carefully produce quality products using traditional methods, including fresh and acidulous aperitifs such as the "Little Prince Guillevic". The eaux de vie distilled in their still are aged in oak barrels in their own cellar. The production, labeled organic, is planted with about fifteen Breton bitter, bitter-sweet, sweet or tart varieties.

Guy Le Lay is a magician! But it runs in the family, he is a worthy and talented representative from a long line of distillers. One needs to discover his latest splendour, "Eddu Silver", an original whiskey which is made from Breton buckwheat, and only buckwheat, which is quite unique in the world. The divine drink exudes an aroma of vanilla wood. In the mouth, it is a selection of fruity flavours, hints of honey and spices. Added to the range, a little brother, the blended whiskey "Eddu Grey Rock" and the prestigious "Eddu Gold". Also cider, lambig AOR produced here since 1921 is available in two versions, standard (3 years old) and old reserve (7 years old). The Pommeau de Bretagne AOC also declined in two versions, standard (2 years old) and old (4-5 years old). Pommeau and lambig were regular award winners at the contest of Général Agricole de Paris. A huge establishment.

Jean-Marie Gouédard took over the meadery created by his father Patrick, an ex-beekeeper: they make chouchenn, the Breton name given to an alcoholic drink similar to mead, liquorous, obtained from the fermentation of honey in water. The factory is installed in a traditional building of 1919, former wine storehouse of a wine merchant. In the courtyard, there are still two vats of 70 hectoliters each. By appointment, you can of course enjoy a guided tour of the cellars, with a nice tasting of chouchenn.

This artisanal distillery is one of the editor's favourites! The Moby Dick distillery produces small pearls to be consumed in moderation. Verbena liqueur, nasturtiums or Elixir d'amour are some of their creations. They also produce whisky (Sky peated, white and amber), gin and pastis. It is even possible to take part in a workshop to make whisky or other aperitifs. Super quality!

Founded in 1900, this distillery was first successful with its Elixir d'Armorique, a plant liqueur which is still produced today. In 1987, the establishment marketed the first Breton whisky, the WB. Ten years later, Armorik, a single malt which has nothing to envy to its Scottish cousins, is born. Today, in addition to the Armorik range, Warenghem produces a wide range of spirits: chouchen, Fine, pommeau de Bretagne, etc. A tour of the factory takes you to the cellars and distillation rooms, before a tasting session. Book in advance in summer.

Founded in 1980, Distillerie du Plessis remains committed to tradition. But it also likes to innovate... Pastis marin (with seaweed), Liqueur Algane Océan (bitter orange and seaweed), Liqueur de fraises de Plougastel (Plougastel strawberry liqueur) and Kremmig (flavored cider brandy cream) are just some of the flavors to be discovered in the store. The cider house won an award at the Concours Général Agricole de Paris in 2018. Let yourself be tempted by a guided tour of the museum and a tasting session.

Lenaïg and Steven open their doors all year round for live sales, tastings and guided tours in season. You will discover a farm cider of character, a Cornouaiile PDO cider (the only PDO in Brittany), pommeau de Bretagne, lambig de Cornouaille and flat apple juice or Bulles de pommes, a surprising sparkling apple juice. Here at Menez Brug, or "Mont des bruyères", everything is made using traditional methods and the cider is not pasteurized to keep its aromas. To be discovered at full speed!
