Lambig de Bretagne - Cider brandy
A brandy obtained by distilling cider in a still, Lambig de Bretagne is then aged in French oak barrels. There are two variations, a clever blend of vintages ranging from 3 to 8 years old.
The Lambig Hors d'âge has been aged for 8 years.
Lambig is first and foremost the story of a man, Guy LE LAY. Unwilling to accept the planned death of this farmhouse brandy distilled in his family since 1921, he founded his own distillery and launched the first Lambig de Bretagne in 1989. Stubborn as a Breton, he defended the Lambig de Bretagne* appellation, a term rooted in the ancestral memory of the Bretons of West Plomelin, the capital of Lambig!

The Menhirs Distillery was officially founded in 1986 by Guy Le Lay in PLOMELIN in southern Finistère. It was on this land steeped in history, with the presence of 5,000-year-old menhirs, that his ancestors began their adventure in 1921 as traveling distillers. Guy Le Lay, previously a mathematics teacher, obtained the status of professional distiller in 1986 and developed his Pommeau de Bretagne that same year. In 1989, he launched Lambig de Bretagne, in memory of the cider brandy of the western Bretons. His desire for novelty and the meeting with an international expert allowed him to innovate by distilling a Breton cereal, buckwheat. This will lead to the Eddu Silver whisky in 2022. Since then, his sons Erwan, Kevin and Loig have been perpetuating this know-how, developing the range with variations of EDDU, and the creation of L'Ed Gwenn.
