Wines and spirits Bastia

In 1872, Louis Napoléon Mattei founded the Distillerie L.N. Mattei, and then had the bright idea of creating a wine-based aperitif with cinchona: Cap Corse Mattei, which was a huge success and is now a totally legendary drink. He also creates liqueurs based on the emblematic fruits of his beloved island, such as citron and myrtle. In this boutique, you'll find all the brand's products in sumptuous bottles, as well as related products (clothing, books, objects) and other famous spirits.

Hédiard is well known so that the guarantee of finding an excellent cognac flows from source. However, the store makes a nice share of the Corsican products so do not expect to have a large choix choice, you will find in general the delicious cognac Lhéraud. You have to accompany it with regional delicacies: poutargue, Corsican meats, chestnut bowl or nougat with hazelnuts are certainly the best places to accompany your tasting.

Mattei, famous for having invented Cap Corse, the island's emblematic aperitif, over 150 years ago, is now a concept store offering a wide range of products from the island and around the world. In addition to Mattei alcohols, you'll find a cellar brimming with wines and spirits, delicatessen products and designer items in this superb historic building listed as a French heritage site. There's also a large bar where you can sample the house's delicacies during a visit or on festive occasions.
