Distillerie du
Houley – La Ribaude

Founded in 1953, the Distillerie du Houley is an independent family business, passed down through the generations by the Deschamps family, just a stone’s throw from Lisieux.

On our domain, La Ribaude, we cultivate certified organic orchards from which all our products are crafted. Our cider apples, rich in tannins and carefully selected, give rise to Calvados AOC Pays d'Auge with complex aromas and a beautiful finish, as well as a Pommeau de Normandie AOC of remarkable sweetness and aromatic richness. Our range extends from Fine to Prestige, including Vieux, Vieille Réserve, and Hors d'Age, with each blend being the fruit of patiently accumulated expertise and an absolute commitment to quality. All our cuvées are available in both conventional and organic versions. Come and visit us at La Ribaude for a guided tour and tasting: an invitation to discover authentic Normandy in a dreamlike setting.
