About this liqueur

Vedrenne is a renowned producer of Creme de Cassis, a liqueur made from blackcurrants. The company has a rich history dating back to 1923 when Joseph Vedrenne founded it in Nuits-Saint-Georges, France. Since then, Vedrenne has been producing high-quality Creme de Cassis using traditional methods and the finest ingredients.

The production process of Vedrenne Creme de Cassis involves macerating blackcurrants in alcohol for several weeks to extract their flavor and color. The resulting liquid is then blended with sugar syrup and aged in oak barrels to enhance its complexity and depth. The final product is a rich, sweet liqueur with a deep purple color and a complex flavor profile.

Vedrenne offers a range of Creme de Cassis products, including their classic Creme de Cassis, which is perfect for making Kir cocktails, and their premium Creme de Cassis de Dijon, which is made exclusively from blackcurrants grown in the Dijon region of France. Vedrenne also produces other fruit liqueurs, including raspberry, peach, and apricot.

Overall, Vedrenne is a top producer of Creme de Cassis, known for their commitment to quality and traditional production methods. Their products are perfect for adding a touch of sweetness and complexity to cocktails or desserts.
