Distillery offering lavender-based products, including essential oils, creams and honey, 100% pure and natural.
In the 1930s, the Aubanel family began distilling wild fine lavender. In 1950, the first lavender fields were planted. From modernization to development, the business, though still family-run and artisanal, has expanded, and during the harvest and distillation periods, lavender perfumes the village of Chamaloc. The boutique offers a wide range of lavender products, including essential oils such as rose geranium and thyme, walnut oil, honey and other local products.

Distillerie des 4 Vallées - Chamaloc (Drôme)
Nestled at the foot of the Vercors mountains, Distillerie des 4 Vallées is a family-run farm that has been perpetuating the tradition of lavender cultivation and distillation since 1930. Over some thirty hectares, different varieties of lavender and lavandin are grown, enabling us to control the entire process, from planting to harvesting.
Handcrafted distillation, carried out on site, extracts quality essential oils using traditional methods. The farm also raises sheep, horses and donkeys, adding to its diversity.

From April to October, guided tours are offered daily to discover lavender cultivation, harvesting and the distillation process. These tours offer a complete immersion, from the nursery to the essential oil.
