Introduction to the Limousin

Limousin is slap in the middle of France (and left a bit). It's very rural and is the second least populated region after Corsica. It is also the only French region to have given its name to a 20' car with a jacuzzi in the back. Historians claim the association comes from the very long cloaks worn by Limousin shepherds, though what shepherds were doing driving limos is anyone's guess.

More about the Limousin ......

Limousin is famous for its oak trees, used for wine barrels throughout France. I'm a beer drinker myself, but I do find that the phenols in Limousin oak interact cheekily with the wine to bring out its tea, caramel, smoke and raspberry notes. Another natural resource is kaolin, which gave birth to Limoges porcelain and also has medicinal properties. So if you're after a nice mug or just have a gyppy tum, Limoges is the place for you.
