In the words of the distillery - "Crème de Cassis de Dijon has been the symbol of tradition and expertise at Maison Boudier for more than 100 years. By rigorously maintaining the strict methods of production, the taste and flavour is now renowned throughout the world. Indeed, only Creme de Cassis de Dijon has to be made from the extract of macerating blackcurrant berries in alcohol without preservatives or coloring, with a limited addition of sugar dissolved directly into the alcoholic juice of the blackcurrant berries at cold temperature."
