Description

Sylvie and Thierry welcome you to their farm to discover the blue flower that is lavender and take you on a tour of the distillery built in 1947 by the "grandfather Felix".
They will explain to you on the site the methods of cultivation and cutting of the lavender up to the transport of the plant to the distillery, as well as each stage of the distillation.
