The Normandy / Calvados region
The Pays-d'Auge is renowned for its production of cider and calvados. There are large distilleries but still plenty of small producers. Its climate is favourable to breeding of dairy-cattle and production of excellent cheeses like the camembert, Pont-l'Evèque and Livarot. You will discover all this products on numerous farmers markets as you drive around the region.
