Eddu Tourbé Breton Whisky - Distillerie des Menhirs - Pure Buckwheat

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.
