Kir breton or Celtic kir Ajouter aux favoris

On the Pink Granite Coast, the Breton kir – or Celtic kir – is more than just an aperitif: it’s a joyous ritual celebrating taste and the sea. White wine is swapped for Breton cider spiked with a dash of crème de cassis or chouchen. Light, fruity and full of character, it’s a great way to share it with friends over local produce: oysters, buckwheat crisps, seafood rillettes… On a terrace facing the pink rocks, you can enjoy it in a simple, generous atmosphere.

Chouchen, Brittany’s liquid gold

Born from the combination of honey and apple juice, chouchen has a seductive golden colour and sweet, sunny notes. Heir to Celtic traditions, it is best enjoyed chilled, as an aperitif or after-dinner drink. On the Pink Granite Coast, you’ll find it on the markets of Lannion, Tréguier and Perros-Guirec, with enthusiastic producers and in local cellars. Some reinvent it with buckwheat or age it in oak barrels. A taste of authenticity, a touch of legend: chouchen is Brittany dripping away.
