  • Tonnellerie Lefloc’h Tour in Lannion: Barrel Crafting

    In Lannion, the Tonnellerie Lefloc’h visit opens the workshop of Benjamin Lefloc’h, identified by the source as Brittany’s only cooper craftsman. The tour follows the making of wooden barrels for cider, wine and eaux-de-vie, from the selection of noble woods to the gestures used to shape and assemble each piece. The visit also presents decorative objects and the workshop’s use of wood from sustainably managed forests. For visitors, the value is precise and concrete: this is not a generic craft stop, but a look at a rare regional know-how still tied to Brittany’s drink and food culture.
