Going to Brittany to look for the best independent breweries, Beer Connoisseur contributor Owen Ogletree has visited Domaine Dupont in Normandy:
.
With a history of cider production dating back to 1887 and its own 50 acres of on-site orchards, the polished prize apple of the Normandy cider route has to be Famille Dupont.
(…)
Many Dupont ciders are available in the USA, and Jerome works with American importers B. United in several innovative projects such as utilizing Champagne techniques for sparkling cider, experimenting with a variety of apple blends and aging cider in calvados barrels.
Visitors to Normandy should be sure to stop into Dupont’s bright and welcoming gift shop/tasting room and inquire about a tour.
