Menton Lemon PDO — France's most prestigious citrus fruit — hand-sliced and slowly dried to capture every nuance of its fragrant zest.
There is a place, between the Alps and the Mediterranean, where the microclimate is so exceptional that lemons achieve an aromatic complexity unattainable elsewhere. Menton. Protected by a PDO since 2015 — the only French lemon to bear this distinction — it stands out for a zest remarkably rich in essential oils, floral, tangy, almost sweet, and a flesh less acidic than conventional lemons. Each slice we slowly dry in our workshop in Drôme Provençale is an invitation to this unique balance: the intensity of the zest, the delicacy of the flesh. The king of citrus fruits, in its most beautiful expression.

Pastry — lemon tart, financiers, madeleines with zest.
