This is a family business where life and apples are crunched to the max. Located in the Landes du Mené, the Barbé cider factory, which has won fourteen medals at the Concours Général Agricole de Paris since 1974 and many times at the "Terralies" in Saint-Brieuc, is one of the best ambassadors of the Breton region. First, there was Jean who, in 1921, started beekeeping and making chouchen. Then there was Paul, his son, who, in order to diversify his activity, turned to the production of a cider that he named "Le P'tit Fausset". "P'tit Fausset"? It is the name of the wooden peg placed on the front of the barrel. You know, the one that is removed to taste the good cider before putting the barrel in the bore. And then, here is Gilles. He is the one who now welcomes you to the family estate. When he took over from his father in 1989, he brought his own personal touch: the range of products was expanded to include apple juice and cider vinegar, while the conversion to organic farming was carried out. Today, the AB certification has made the reputation of the house. The apples are grown in the family's four-hectare orchard or come from the tall apple trees of nearby producers. The organic pure juice cider "Le P'tit Fausset" seduces by its bottle with mechanical porcelain cap, the cider vinegar by its sweet and fruity perfume... In short, it is here the rich and intense marriage of Breton flavours as we like to share them.
