Boudier, Crème de Cassis de Dijon

20.0% | 50.0cl

Gabriel Boudier Crème de Cassis, a luxurious and indulgent liqueur that captures the essence of the finest blackcurrants. Crafted with the utmost care and expertise by Gabriel Boudier, a renowned distillery with a rich history dating back to 1874, this Crème de Cassis is the epitome of elegance and flavour.

To create this exquisite liqueur, Gabriel Boudier carefully selects ripe blackcurrants, known for their intense aroma and vibrant color. These succulent berries are harvested at the peak of their ripeness, ensuring maximum flavor concentration.

The blackcurrants undergo a meticulous maceration process, where they are gently crushed and left to steep in a high-quality neutral alcohol. This infusion allows the essence of the fruit to permeate the spirit, extracting the full depth of flavour.

After the maceration period, the liquid is carefully pressed, resulting in a rich, velvety extract. This extract is then blended with a touch of sugar, perfectly balancing the natural tartness of the blackcurrants and creating a harmonious sweetness.

The final step in the production of Gabriel Boudier Crème de Cassis is the masterful art of blending. Skilled craftsmen expertly combine the blackcurrant extract with a precisely measured amount of alcohol, achieving a harmonious and well-rounded flavour profile.

Tasting Note

Deep, rich purple in the glass, with gorgeous aromas of sweet blackcurrant and delicate floral undertones. The initial burst of blackcurrant opens into layers of sweet and tangy notes, balanced by a gentle acidity. Smooth and lingering with a delightful fruity finish.
