More than an awakening of the senses, it is an an invitation to sumptuous delights that the agency suggests. Backed by many quality labels, the Landes region offers a wealth of local produce. Enough to inspire the culinary ideas of chefs who create unique dishes of surprising subtlety. From duck breast to foie gras, from Chalosse beef to Landes asparagus and Adour corn, the explosion of flavours on the palate is the most extraordinary highlight. Seafood is at the heart of the Landes region’s culinary art. The chefs of coastal brasseries, bucolic bistros and gourmet restaurants head to the foot of the harbour master's office in Capbreton to choose the best freshly caught fish. A feast for the taste buds. In the mood for a gourmet break? Head to Lac d’Hossegor. There, meet the oyster farmers. They will tell you all about their passion for their craft and the age-old techniques that give their oysters a delicate taste with a hint of hazelnut aroma. The oyster farmer's huts are a sophisticated experience in an exceptional environment. With your feet in the sand, enjoy a meal while watching the majestic sun set against the coppery waters of the saltwater lake. Landes spirits also carry the Landes label, a mark of the region's authenticity. As well as the craft beers that you can enjoy in one of the bars along the coast or in the pretty villages of Capbreton, Seignosse or Hossegor, take the time to sip, in moderation, one of the finest alcoholic beverages in the Landes. Armagnac is a lord among beverages. Distilled since the Middle Ages, it is perfect as a digestive to round off your refined meal. Chefs in the region also use it to flavour their dishes. Made from Armagnac, Floc de Gascogne, drunk as an aperitif, is a subtle blend of brandy and grape juice. For lunch or dinner in a restaurant, try the vin de Tursan. Its marine notes and ripeness come from the microclimate that protects its vines. A sandy wine as soft and pleasant as the aura of the Landes which will add a touch of sensuality to your holiday rental.
