Breton cider

Jun 21, 2004 0 Replies

I've just had a fortnight in southern Brittany, near Vannes, and despite being very constricted in what I could do (they're five years old now), which meant I could only get to a few local shops and supermarkets, I managed to try 15 different types of Breton cider.



The ones I tried were a bit samey compared to the West Country's finest. They were all sparkling, semi-dry (although they were described as brut), on the weak side - only up to 5.5% at most - and I couldn't find any that stated the type of apple/s used, but this is probably because I couldn't get round to any proper specialist outlets.



I was wondering if anyone any suggestions for better Breton or Norman cider than the ones I found?
