For Côte d’Azur France, Maison Gannac has created a range of gift sets to give to others or treat yourself to!

Made from Menton IGP lemons – renowned for their sweetness and more intense flavours, and certified organic – Maison Gannac’s delicious gourmet products instantly transport you to Menton, where, right on the border with Italy, the lemon has reigned supreme since the 15th century.

Whether in the form of limoncello, jam or cream, Maison Gannac and Côte d’Azur France invite you to discover – and share with others – the full richness and flavour of this iconic fruit of the Côte d’Azur through these products, specially designed in the colours of our region.


THE GANNAC HOUSE

A FAMILY-RUN BUSINESS,
LOCAL TRADITION

At Domaine Gannac, Laurent cultivates around thirty species and varieties of citrus fruit, ranging from Menton lemons (PGI) to kumquats, including yuzu, fine Corsican clementines, grapefruit and caviar lemons…

Any product can be truly magnificent, provided one knows how to listen to it. This has been Adrien’s philosophy ever since he joined his father. It can be summed up in a single equation: how to take citrus – a fruit that has been taken for granted for far too long, and whose season we no longer recognise – and transform it from the ordinary into something extraordinary!

The Menton lemon is the result of a successful combination of a latitude that is already very far north for this crop (Menton is the northernmost area where this citrus fruit is grown) and a local microclimate that protects it from frost. The Menton lemon is also described as a ‘four-season’ variety. This term is justified by its very abundant flowering in spring, which resumes in summer and continues strongly again in late autumn.
