Lambig

Lambig is an oak-aged brandy distilled from apple cider. It hails from Brittany, where it originated as a farm brandy that was mainly distilled for local consumption. The brandy is now commercially produced and has become one of the traditional regional products.

When the brandy is distilled, it is oak-aged for several years. It results in a golden or amber-colored drink with pleasant aromas reminiscent of apples, warming spices, and nuts, along with distinctive woody and spicy notes. Lambig is best served as an aperitif or a digestif, and it should always be slowly sipped.

It is bottled at 40%ABV. To be classified as a protected AOC product, it must be aged for a minimum of two years.
