Birch water from Côte d’Armor !
Birch is a fairly common tree in France, and its "water" has been harvested since ancient times.
I was interested in the one harvested in Langast, Côte d’Armor, because it comes from a rather unusual place for the friendliness and calm it offers.
But first, let's take a look at this famous "birch water".
I am not a specialist, so I give you what is constantly recurring in the articles devoted to it.
First, let us talk about Napoleon, or, more precisely, about a military surgeon of his armies, Baron Pierre-François Percy who, in 1800, spoke about him in these terms:
"skin diseases, pimples, pimples, scars, rosacea etc. rarely resist it it is a precious remedy in rheumatic diseases, gout residues, bladder embarrassment, and a host of chronic diseases".
That's clear!
Today, it is said that birch sap eliminates toxins accumulated during winter, and fights cholesterol and high blood pressure by promoting the elimination of organic waste such as uric acid, for example. It is also known to soothe urinary disorders and rheumatism, and to stimulate the liver, kidneys, pancreas...
Harvested in spring, it is advisable to do a cure at this time of year to regain your fitness and well-being after winter.
Birch water, roaches, forest, and sea
This is the proposal of the Domaine du Bûchon, located between Lamballe and Loudéac.
The birch sap, certified "organic farming" is harvested in March, so it is from April to October that the estate welcomes camper van owners. Indeed, it is part of the France Passion network, and has therefore provided a few places to host free of charge.
Apart from the presentation of this famous magical water, holidaymakers can also quietly enjoy the calm of the forest, or go fishing in the one-hectare pond where we keep, carp, and pike await them!
Or go for a walk to the sea: Saint Brieuc is less than 35 kilometres away....
