As is the case as regards all of our crèmes de cassis, for our Dijon Crème de Cassis 20% we use the most prestigious blackcurrant variety. Indeed, “Noir de Bourgogne” variety (meaning Black of Burgundy). Our berries are harvested exclusively in Burgundy in France.
The blackcurrant berries are macerated in a water and alcohol solution for about 10 weeks. Maceration gives the best result to extract all flavours from that berries. The alcohol-containing juice thus obtained is called infusion. Then, we add French white sugar to obtain this crème de cassis.
This liqueur is our top-of-the-range blackcurrant liqueur due to its high blackcurrant berries content. It is our flagship product and generates our best sales, out of all of our products. Our ancestral know-how means that we produce premium-quality cassis.
We recommend that this product be employed for such diverse uses as cooking, desserts, cocktails and, of course, the ever-popular white wine-blackcurrant liqueur drink.
You can drink it straight, with ice, or with a dry or sparkling white wine, or in a Briottet Sour cocktail.
