ARMAGNAC VEUVE LAFONTAN
Read moreFrom the gentle Gers landscape, here is an address that has drawn everything from it. Veuve Lafontan raises wine distillation to the rank of excellence. Béatrice Mandon only produces exceptional armagnacs. To taste her armagnacs is to discover treasures of diversity and complexity and an authentic aromatic palette. The eaux-de-vie are aged in 200 to 400 litre pedunculate oak barrels. The treasure room contains an exceptional collection with a range of vintages from 1888 to 1969 preserved in casks.
MARCHÉ DE CAZAUBON
Read moreThe market is held twice a week. The Rue des Thermes is pedestrianized on Wednesday mornings in Barbotan, while the Place de l'Eglise is taken over by producers on Friday mornings in Cazaubon. An open-air market, it's mainly devoted to food, but you'll also come across a few producers of armagnac and micro-production beers. The region's flagship products abound on the stalls, including the inevitable foie gras, but also delicious organic farmhouse cheeses. Lovers of fine produce won't want to miss these events!
LA FERME DU ROSIER SUR LE TOIT
Read moreThis farm raises fat ducks and free-range pork. The family farm, managed by Delphine and Nicolas, has a canning factory. You will find all the variations of duck, fresh or cooked, and of course the traditional foie gras. But also pork meat, as well as black pudding, sausages or ham... It is a traditional breeding, that the owners will be happy to show you around (make an appointment by phone).
