VÉDRENNE
Read moreThe Védrenne shop in the rue Bossuet is a nice showcase for the group of the same name based in Nuits-Saint-Georges. Created in 1923, the Védrenne house is a real institution. Among the distillery's products, we can mention the "Supercassis" blackcurrant cream at 20 degrees which is a pure delight, or, very trendy, the triple dry curaçao. The fruit creams are available with chestnut, blueberry, vine peach and the liqueurs allow to make amazing cocktails, like the one with elderflower. There are many references in the shop.
MAISON BRIOTTET
Read moreWe don't mess around with blackcurrant at Briottet's. It has been 10 years since Claire and her brother Vincent took over the reins of this Dijon-based institution, famous for its Crème de Cassis 100% Noir de Bourgogne, top-of-the-range liqueurs and digestifs. A deserved success and a notoriety that transcends borders. If bartenders from all over the world are tearing up the 64 liqueurs of the family house, it's because their cocktails are only better! The range is astonishing: kumquat, pineapple, basil, tonka... For the curious or undecided, each reference can be ordered on the online shop. In Dijon, the brand can be found in bars, restaurants, delicatessens and wine shops.
