Certain producers are open for visits by appointment, whereas others are open all year round, such as Calvados Dupont and the Manoir de Grandouet, to name but two.
The Calvados Pierre Huet distillery is well worth a detour: it is one of the only distilleries to rely on renewable energy to power its still! On your next visit, make sure you pay a visit to the medieval Château de Crèvecoeur-en-Auge which, every year, hosts the Crèvecoeur medieval fair – a two-week event including activities and demonstrations straight from the Middle Ages. Also waiting to be discovered: the Jardins du Pays d’Auge – gardens and eco-museum in Cambremer and the typical village of Beuvron-en-Auge, listed as one of France’s most beautiful. |
