le cassissium印象

Hello, Thank you for your comment about the Cassissium. Further to your review, we would like to add that our museum is dedicated to blackcurrant liqueur and its history. You must have us confused with another museum about sparkling wines and Burgundy wines which is nearby. Kind regards,

Really easy to find as soon as you get to Nuits-St-George as there are signs everywhere. We found the tour easy to follow on the audio player and we were able to ask lots of questions. The tasting was by far the best part, if you love trying different flavours and love liqueurs, you'll be in safe hands, I think we could have tried all 47 flavours if we'd had the time! Great gifts to take home too!

This is one of many places where cassis is made - it's interesting but somewhat disorganized. It took them considerable time to find us audio guides, the displays are informative but random and we had found better prices on cassis in the Beaune co-op winery. But it has everything you ever wanted to know about blackcurrants - it may be unique.

The tour was a fairly informative one and brought us through the process of making Cassis de Creme, a drink which I have never developed a taste for unfortunately. The information and background on the common blackcurrant is extensive and worth spending some time on. I was however, disappointed to find out that the blackcurrant only lends flavour and colour to syrup. The addition of pure alcohol and one third by weight of sugar is what gives it the kick and sickly sweet taste. I had imagined all along that the sweetness and alcohol came from fermenting of dessicated blackcurrants but apparently I was very wrong.The folks at the Cassissium are friendly and speak a bit of English. I found the tour more interesting than the tasting but thats just me. There is a tasting of many different types of liquors produced by them and its not just restricted to blackcurrants. There is also apple, etc...Found the price of the tour a bit expensive though.

We would never have found this but for tourist office. Well worth a visit if interested in wine. They also have a huge selection of Burgundy at reasonable prices

we chose not to do the tour but were given a lovely tasing. I had never had supercassis before, it was very intense. the gift shop was great and reasonably priced

Wow, what a great attraction. We visited Vedrenne Le Cassissium and certainly it met our expectation. We visited the museum which was was very informative even if your language is English. The factory and production area was also interesting and an audio guide was provided. We really enjoyed the Tasting and we were give a one on one tasting with a very knowledgeable male guide. we're were amazed at the amount of flavours of liqueurs that were produced.This attraction is well worth a visit. Youu will not be disappointed.

Who knew that an entire museum could be devoted to the black currant and a liqueur made from it? Our visit consisted of a visit to the museum and a guided tour of the cassis production plant, and concluded with a tasting. An audio guide in English is available, but is useful only on the factory tour, not in the museum. The museum features a collection of advertisements for cassis through the years and anecdotal information about the medicinal value of black currants, as well as information about growing black currants. We hung out in the museum (which is pretty small) for nearly an hour waiting for the tour to start. One of the employees conducts the tour, but only in French; stations throughout the factory are numbered and correspond to sections of the audio tour. However, not all portions of the tour have corresponding English audio (so we missed a lot of information, particularly at the start of the tour). The tour wraps up with a tasting of cassis and numerous other liqueurs made by the company. A gift shop sells a variety of liqueurs and a few related items such as black currant jam and candy.

Dear vPraag, We would like to thank you for your review and your visit to Le Cassissium. We just wanted to add some details to your comment. We understood that you were looking for wine tasting and we are indeed not a wine producer but a liqueur producer. Burgundy is well known worldwide for its wines but there are many other specialities: gingerbread, mustard and blackcurrant liqueur just to name a few. They are part of Burgundy culture as well. The museum is about blackcurrant and describes the cultivation, all the properties, the medicinal purposes and people enjoy discovering this other part of Burgundy.We would also like to mention that we are not forcing anyone to drink or trying to get anyone drunk.We hope you enjoyed your tour in Burgundy and that you got to visit some wine cellars which were more suitable to your wishes.

Lots of parking space out front - but there is also plenty of coach spaces - and big groups do seem to take over. We had to join a French-speaking tour of the factory, but were given English audio guides. However as I speak French, I found that some bits seemed to be missing from the English version, and we didn't get a lot of chance to digest one chunk of information before passing onto the next. After the whistle-stop factory tour we then went into the main building - some of the displays look half-built and have information missing. Some of the interactives also only worked in French - and thiings seemed to be a bit disorganised. The informtion is very comprehensive - who would have thought that France is only the third biggest producer of blackcurrants - UK is top! However, when we got to the tasting - we could have carried on until they would have scooped us up off the ground! I called a halt after trying 3 different versions of blackcurrent flavoured brandy... The tasting area could have done with some places to sit, but perhaps this is deliberate, so they can tell if someone is swaying! Visit ended in the shop, of course, but the prices were higher than elsewhere, so I didn't succumb.
