This crème de cassis is distinguished by its aromatic intensity and the depth of its almost opaque color. On the nose, there are intense notes of blackcurrant, with nuances reminiscent of the fertile soil from which it originates. The taste is richly layered, with a sweet start that evolves into a pleasant acidic complexity, typical of blackcurrants, which lingers pleasantly on the palate.
The production process begins with the careful selection of the finest blackcurrants, harvested at the perfect point of ripeness. These are then macerated in alcohol to extract all the aromas before proceeding with pressing to obtain the juice that will form the base of the liqueur. Finally, sugar is added to balance the natural acidity of the fruits.
The "Crème de Cassis de Dijon" is perfect to enjoy neat, well chilled, but it also shines as a key component in cocktails like the Kir or Kir Royale, where its richness beautifully complements the freshness of champagne or white wine. It is also exceptional as an accompaniment to chocolate or fruit-based desserts, where its depth can balance sweetness and intense flavors.
In summary, the "Crème de Cassis de Dijon - Philippe de Bourgogne" is a liquid expression of Burgundian tradition and quality, encapsulating all the charm of this rich and historic land, making it an essential ingredient for lovers of quality liqueurs.
