G.E. Massenez Creme De Cassis de Dijon - 750ml

Description

G.E. Massenez Creme De Cassis de Dijon is a classic French blackcurrant liqueur with deep berry flavor, vivid color, and a rich, velvety texture. Made in the Dijon tradition, crème de cassis is built around cold macerated blackcurrants, creating concentrated fruit aroma, dark berry sweetness, and a lightly tart finish. It is especially useful in sparkling wine cocktails, whiskey sours, and fruit-forward classics.

Producer

G.E. Massenez is a historic Alsatian producer known for eaux-de-vie, fruit crèmes, and liqueurs. The Massenez family’s distilling history dates to 1870, when Jean-Baptiste Massenez was distilling in the Val de Villé in Urbeis. The house later became known for expressive fruit spirits and even served as an official supplier to the court of the King of Sweden.

Cocktail Suggestions

G.E. Massenez Creme De Cassis de Dijon is essential in a Kir Royale with dry sparkling wine. The cassis adds deep blackcurrant sweetness, color, and aroma, while the bubbles keep the drink crisp, elegant, and easy to serve before dinner.

It also brings dark berry depth to a Bourbon Renewal with bourbon, fresh lemon juice, and bitters. The liqueur’s blackcurrant richness plays well with oak, vanilla, and spice, giving the whiskey sour format a fruitier but still balanced profile.
