 Our “Lambig” - 40% vol.
(Cider brandy)
Definition
Lambig is the name of our Brittany cider brandy. After distillation, it ages in our spirit store-houses. This spirit is the result of patient selection and blending.
Origin
Traditionally, lambig was a farm cider brandy for the personal use of peasants and so, not allowed to be sold. We started marketing this brandy in 1986 when we became professional distillers.
Production
They are two types of lambig de Bretagne :
Classic lambig ages for 3 years in oak barrels. Its strength and vitality characterise its youth. Its fresh apple aromas are remarkable, with slight woody notes.
Lambig « Vieille Reserve » is a blending of cider brandies aged for many years in small oak barrels which give them the wealth of their tannins. Slighty spicy, vanilla oak flavours.
To enjoy lambig
Classic lambig can be drunk as a liqueur after a meal or as an aperitif on ice or with a drop of blackcurrant syrup (cassis).
Lambig Old Reserve is better served as an aperitif.
