We took our friends from Belarus to Normandie for a couple of days' stay, and on our penultimate day took in part of the Route de Cidre. To round off the day, we decided on a whim to pass through Pont L'Eveque...ours was the only car in the car park late afternoon, so we thought the facility might be closed, but the four of us walked across to the main building (fingers crossed).... As three of us were Russian speakers, the manager asked if we would like to hear the programme in Russian..... What a fabulous venue, superb visual and audio presentations, covering the history of Normandie, Eau de Vie, processing, etc., rounded off by an excellent tasting with the guidance of knowledgeable staff. Not to be missed!

My partner and I are visiting Honfleur for a few days and are passionate about local produce, so we decided today to drive down to visit the Calvados Christian Drouin distillery. It was very quiet but we were greeted warmly by a gentleman who gave us some warm cider. He then took us on a tour and gave us a great insight to the workings of the distillery. This was followed by a generous tasting of several varieties and ages of Calvados (VSOP, XO, Hors d’Ages) plus cider, pommeau and gin. All in all a great find and we came away with a bag full of goodies. Well worth a visit.
