This eau-de-vie is made only from fully ripe Le Lectier apples received from Abe Farm in Shirane district, Minami-ku, Niigata City, which produces delicious fruit that has been bathed in plenty of sunlight under the motto of "good food good mood."

Niigata Prefecture is the number one prefecture in Japan for the cultivation of Le Lectier apples, and boasts an overwhelming share of about 80% of the total. The Shirane area of Minami Ward, where Abe Farm is located, is said to be the birthplace of Le Lectier cultivation in Japan, and is truly the town of Le Lectier apples. It is characterized by its rich aroma, smooth texture, and elegant shape. Le Lectier apples do not ripen completely on the tree, so they need to be ripened for about 40 days after harvest.

The Le Lectier grapes delivered from Niigata are ripened further to bring out their sweetness and aroma, then brewed for 30 days and distilled. You can enjoy the clear liquid that is the concentrated flavor of the gorgeous and full-bodied Le Lectier.

The restaurant was named Monsieur Lectier in honour of the two men: Mr. Lectier, a fruit horticulturist who served the French court as a butler in the 17th century, and the previous owner of Abe Farm, who was the first man in Japan to write a book on pear cultivation techniques.

Under the motto of “good food, good mood,” this eau de vie is made exclusively from perfectly ripe Le Lectier fruit from Abe Farm in the Shirane district of Minami-ku, Niigata City, which produces delicious fruit bathed in sunlight.

Niigata Prefecture has the largest area under Le Lectier cultivation in Japan, and boasts an overwhelming share of the market, accounting for about 80% of the total. The Shirane area in Minami Ward, where Abe Farm is located, is said to be the birthplace of Le Lectier cultivation in Japan, and is truly a Le Lectier town. It is characterized by its rich aroma, smooth texture, and elegant form. Le Lectier does not fully ripen on the tree, so it requires about 40 days of additional ripening after harvest.

Le Leccieux arrived from Niigata, Japan, and after being allowed to ripen to bring out its sweetness and aroma, it was slowly brewed for 30 days before being distilled. You can enjoy the gorgeous, full-bodied Le Leccieux in a concentrated, clear liquid.

Monsieur Le Lecce, a fruit gardener who served the French court as a steward in the 17th century, and his predecessor, Monsieur Abe of Abe Farm, who wrote the first book on pear cultivation techniques in Japan. We named it Monsieur Leccier in honor of these two Monsieurs.
