MERLET Creme De Cassis (700ml - 20%)
Merlet & Fils Crème De Cassis Blackcurrant Liqueur boasts a deep, opaque purple hue, nearly black, that coats the glass. The nose is powerfully aromatic with ripe blackcurrant (cassis), accompanied by bold hints of spice, mint, tobacco, and pepper. On the palate, it’s smooth and lightly syrupy, with an intensely tangy and pure cassis finish that leaves a lasting, delightful impression. This premium liqueur, crafted by the Merlet family, uses small but flavour-rich blackcurrants. The berries are soaked in pure alcohol to extract their full flavour, then pressed and filtered. Sugar is added to the natural fruit infusion to create the Crème de Cassis. Merlet oversees every stage of the process, from cultivating and harvesting the ripest fruits to the final production, ensuring the intensity and complexity of this liqueur, thanks to the high concentration of macerated fruit. Merlet’s Crème de Cassis can be enjoyed over ice, with soda water, or in the classic French style with wine or Champagne. It is produced in the St Sauvant region of France.
