1986 Guy LE LAY leaves teaching and founds the Distillerie des Menhirs Guy left his job as a mathematics teacher, obtained the status of professional distiller and at Christmas of the same year, launched the first Pommeau de Bretagne. Currently, the Pommeau de Bretagne of the distillery is still one of the most famous in Brittany. Prix d'Excellence of the Concours Général Agricole 2019 and 2020. 1989 Launch of the first Lambig in Brittany Faithful to his peasant and Breton roots, Guy is also the first to put on the market the cider of Brittany under the name Lambig. He will defend against all the term Lambig, a term anchored in the ancestral memory to designate the cider brandy of the Bretons of the west. The reputation of in-house products awarded with numerous medals encourages him to push the spirit of innovation further. 1996 to 2002 From dream to reality After ten years of activity centered solely around the apple, he engages with passion in another adventure. His dream? Make a black wheat whiskey! The former math teacher tackles the task and carries out his practical work in the family kitchen where a greyish porridge simmers. The decisive meeting with an international expert in spirits allowed him to realize his project. And it is together that they develop the new formula of EDDU. The launch of EDDU Silver in 2002 is a success with connoisseurs and professionals seduced by its quality. "This is so proud to be different. And exceptionally good" Jim MURRAY.
