Description
Joseph Cartron Creme de Cassis de Bourgogne Double Creme 700ml is a blackcurrant liqueur from Joseph Cartron, a family-run liqueur house founded in 1882 in Nuits-Saint-Georges, Burgundy. It is made with Noir de Bourgogne blackcurrants grown on the slopes around Nuits-Saint-Georges, and the double creme style means a higher concentration of fruit than a standard creme de cassis.

Add a splash to chilled dry white wine for a classic Kir, or to sparkling wine for a Kir Royale. It also works in an El Diablo with tequila, lime and ginger beer, poured over vanilla ice cream or spooned over a berry dessert.
- Creme de Cassis de Bourgogne, a Geographical Indication since 2015
- Made in Nuits-Saint-Georges, Burgundy, France
- Double creme style with a higher fruit concentration
The Cartron family still runs the business and buys local Burgundian fruit wherever possible, often from growers it has worked with for generations. Its liqueurs are made on a neutral spirit and sweetened with sugar.
Expect rich, juicy fresh blackcurrant on the nose and palate. It is sweet without being cloying, with a little spice and a warm, long finish.
A good bottle for anyone who enjoys a Kir before dinner or wants a true Burgundy cassis for cocktails and desserts.
