History

Distillerie du Gorvello is located in Brittany near Vannes and the Gulf of Morbihan. It is a small family-owned agricultural business that primarily grows apples for cider. As a natural extension of this production, they have an integrated transformation workshop in the orchards themselves, where with care and artisanal methods they produce quality products, including eau de vie distilled with their own alembic and aged in oak barrels in the cellar.
