About the location

Distillerie Calvados Christian Drouin
1895 route de Trouville, Coudray-Rabut, 14130 Pont-l'Évêque
  • Calvados
  • Normandie
Our estate is an old cider farm typically Auger built since the sixteenth century, until the nineteenth century, with its half-timbered buildings, in the Pays d'Auge, near the flowered coast (Deauville, Trouville,...). The former residential buildings of the farmers and their staff are next to production buildings, as well as a former bread oven and a wash house, within the 9.5-hectare estate with its apple orchard. The architectural complex was restored identically, from 1990 to 2019 by the Drouin family, and the architect Antoine Berge.
