Maison Briottet has been a bastion of premium French distillation since 1836, famously located in the historic heart of Burgundy. Originally established as a traditional wine merchant focusing on the ageing, blending, and bottling of fine regional wines, the house underwent a dramatic evolution following the meteoric rise of the classic Blanc Cassis aperitif. Embracing this shift, the family pivoted their centuries of liquid expertise towards the master production of exceptional fruit crèmes, liqueurs, brandies, and traditional Marcs de Bourgogne, establishing a global benchmark for quality that spans generations.
The jewel in the crown of this historic estate is their legendary Crème de Cassis de Dijon, a protected Geographical Indication that represents the absolute pinnacle of blackcurrant maceration. Maison Briottet employs strict, time-honoured methods to extract the purest possible fruit expressions, avoiding any artificial additives or corporate shortcutting. By sourcing only the finest, most aromatic fruit varieties, they achieve an intense, velvety depth of flavour balanced perfectly by a clean, vibrant acidity.
Today, this multi-generational family business is celebrated worldwide, with their extensive range of fruit liqueurs standing as an essential fixture on the backbars of the world’s best establishments. From the iconic blackcurrant crème to their more contemporary, exotic fruit infusions, every bottle delivers an authentic punch of pure flavour. Highly versatile and remarkably smooth, this collection allows everyday drinkers to effortlessly recreate world-class cocktails or elevate a simple glass of dry white wine or sparkling Prosecco at home.
