The Crème de Cassis de Dijon from is wonderfully frank and typical of blackcurrant, without any foreign notes.  The intense nose marks the quality of the selection of the original fruit.  The fruit-filled and persistent fragrance is an invitation to taste.  Fruity flavours explode in the mouth bringing a fragile sweetness that leave in place a final touch of acidity with a perfect balance of flavours.
