Groult

Our family dis­til­lery, cre­ated by Pierre Groult in 1960, has been passed on from father to son for five gen­er­a­tions. Whilst the tra­di­tion­al Calvados pro­duc­tion meth­ods have been pre­served, includ­ing 100% nat­ur­al fer­ment­a­tion of the cider and double wood-fired dis­til­la­tion, the Groult family has always done everything it can to enhance its man­u­fac­tur­ing pro­cesses and to craft the finest eau-de-vies.

You will see the modern press, the 3 antique copper stills, and above all, our majest­ic ageing cel­lars where 400 bar­rels and foudres (from 100 litres to over 13,000 litres) are used for the ageing of our Calvados.

Our dis­til­lery and our 27 hec­tares of orch­ards are loc­ated in Saint-Cyr du Ron­ceray, in the heart of the tri­angle formed by Lisieux (13km, Sainte Thérèse Basilica), Orbec (12km, medi­ev­al vil­lage, access to the A28 motor­way), and Livarot (18km, Gran­dorge cheese dairy).
