Top 5 Treats from Quebec's Eastern Townships
The best spots to savour all the area has to offer
1. La Route des Vins
‘La Route des Vins’ boasts 18 up-and-coming wineries around the historic village of Dunham, including Domaine Pinnacle, famous for its luscious, award-winning ice apple cider.
2. Brome Lake Ducks
Since 1912, Brome Lake Ducks has been raising high-quality Peking ducks on this idyllic shore. Sample the rillettes, confit, pâté and more.
3. Choco-là
Picking just one of the many chocolatiers in the area is no easy task, but we love Sherbrooke’s Choco-là for its handmade chocolates as well as the macarons, pastries and artisanal ice cream.
4. Bleu Lavande
At Bleu Lavande near Magog, visitors can wander through 42 acres of lavender blossoms, then browse the soaps, shampoos and fragrances made with them.
5. L’ Erablière Les Sucreries d’or
No visit to Quebec is complete without maple syrup. Try it along with maple candy, maple sugar and maple butter in the fieldstone farmhouse of L’ Erablière Les Sucreries d’or in Bonsecours.
