Creme de Cassis
18.0% alcohol
The first impression is the distinctive dark purple/red colour as it cascades into the glass.
The colour is impressive. A quick swirl in the glass reveals the texture and the trailing legs of alcohol and glycerol clinging to the side of the glass hint at flavours to be found. The aroma is familiar, like a blast from the past, blackcurrant ribena but with attitude. The alcohol is there subtle and heady and any thought that this is a soft drink is dispelled with a taste.

Berry fruit, obvious blackcurrant flavour and a sensuous sweetness is quickly contrasted with a crisp natural acidity and the balancing alcohol finish to produce a very distinctive taste.
