Combier Liqueur de Cassis

Crème de Cassis is the liqueur that invented the Kir — and Combier's version is one of the finest expressions of the category available anywhere. Produced by macerating hand-selected blackcurrants from the Loire Valley in neutral alcohol for up to four months — significantly longer than the four-to-six-week maceration typical among most cassis producers — the result is a liqueur free from stabilizers and preservatives, allowing the natural fruit character to define the final product entirely on its own terms. The difference in depth is immediately obvious. The nose is lush and aromatic — pure ripe blackcurrant with hints of blackberry compote, crushed berry leaf, and a subtle floral lift, while the entry is tart and fruit-forward, with a rush of concentrated blackcurrant that avoids syrupy sweetness — earthy minerality emerging at midpalate and balancing the natural sugar, giving the liqueur a layered, almost savory dimension. Plush, creamy, and super-textural, the currant flavours are vivid and ripe but far from cloying, the finish beautifully balanced by sustained acidity. The definitive base for a Kir or Kir Royale.
