Normandy, situated in the north-west of France, is a region rich in history and picturesque landscapes, but it is also establishing itself as a prime location for gin distillation. Known for its temperate climate and fertile soils, Normandy offers a unique terroir that is perfectly suited for growing the aromatic plants used in gin production. Once famous for its cider and calvados, the region is now witnessing a growing interest in crafting high-quality artisanal gins.
Norman producers are particularly attentive to selecting local botanicals, such as apple, juniper, and other herbs from the terroir, to create gins with distinctive and memorable flavours. This authenticity gives their products a strong identity.
Additionally, Norman distilleries, often family-run, stand out for their ancestral expertise and innovation. Thanks to this harmonious blend of tradition and modernity, Normandy is establishing itself as a key player in the world of gin, appealing to both novices and experienced gin cellar enthusiasts. A taste journey to the heart of Normandy promises a sensory experience that honours the spirit of gin discovery.
