The estate of the Dupont family - 50 ha in size including 30ha of cider apple orchards - located in Pays d'Auge and renowned for the quality of its terroir products has been operating for four generations. It strives to make traditional and original products so as to offer a wide range of renowned gastronomic cider products: various ciders, calvados and pommeaux. The individual visit of the distillery and of the cellars is followed by a tasting (1 cider, 1 pommeau, 1 calvados). Guided tours for groups of 10 people or more are available all year round by reservation. It offers various options at adapted rates: the short visit lasts approximately 1 hour and includes the distillery and the cellar. It ends at the shop with a tasting. The long visit lasts 1 hour 30 mins with a visit of the orchards, the press, the distillery and the cellars + tasting. The tasting visit is similar to the previous one but with the tasting of cider products together with local cheeses, delis and pastries. These associations are commented by a sommelier. The professional visit, conducted by a manager of the estate, can provide technical details on various topics (for example: harvesting and choice of varieties, brewing and fermentation, distillation and ageing). Please note that these visits can be commented in French or English. Each year, this estate also offers activities (cocktail workshops, initiation to distillation, etc.). More detailed information is available on the estate or on its website.

Nous avons fait la balade gourmande. La visite guidée était très intéressante et la guide était claire. La dégustation était parfaite et nous a permis de déguster des produits locaux de bons factures. Le seul petit bémol est le repas où quelques améliorations sont à prévoir. Par exemple, il nous semble qu'un vrai cuisinier serait un plus, plutôt que des plats de traiteurs réchauffés aux micro-ondes. Le service quant à lui est très bien. Nous vous encourageons donc à venir découvrir cette production familiale et de qualité.

An excellent example of traditional Calvados, Pommeau and Cider...as well as apple juice and apple cider vinegar! Save this gift for yourself!! **Buy the Calvados spritz for all of your desserts- don't miss**

5 jaar geleden geweest. Nu ook weer langsgegaan. Zeker een aanrader. Beste ciderhuis uit de buurt. Leuke host waarbij je alles kunt proeven en veel uitleg geeft.

Dropped into the shop. The tastings were excellent and very informative. We bought 5 bottles ciders. It's really interesting and diverse. Would highly recommend. No need to book

Na vele distilleerderij bezoeken in Frankrijk, Schotland, Ierland en daarbuiten moet ik dit bezoek zowaar in mijn top 3 steken. We kregen de mogelijkheid om de distilleerderij zelfstandig te verkennen en kregen het vertrouwen om alles te bekijken en fotograferen wat we maar wilden ... de term "familial" werd direct duidelijk.

Maar het beste moest nog komen. We kregen een zeer uitgebreide tasting van een jongedame genaamd Llya. Zelden hebben we zo een grote mate van passie en kennis gezien bij zo een jonge dame. We hebben enkele heel mooie Calvadossen mogen proeven rechtstreeks van het vat en kregen op alle mogelijke vragen een duidelijk antwoord.

Bericht aan de eigenaars van Domaine Dupont ... laat deze dame nooit uit jullie handen glippen ... ze is goud waard !!!
