Bols Crème de Cassis is an authentic dark red blackcurrant liqueur made using an infusion of blackcurrants grown near Dijon, the main town in Burgundy, France, where the product was invented. Bols Crème de Cassis works especially well in drinks containing sour elements (such as lemon or lime juice) and is a superb addition to drinks containing forest fruit purees such as strawberry or raspberry.
Lucas Bols is one of the oldest distilled spirits companies in the world. It started over 440 years ago in 1575, when the Bols family opened a small distillery in Amsterdam. In the 17th century, Amsterdam became one of the most important trading cities in the world, importing many exotic spices, herbs and fruits. This gave Lucas Bols access to many new, high quality natural ingredients. Since then, we have mastered the selection of the right ingredients and our expertise and curiosity has led to the creation of hundreds of delicious liqueurs. The original recipes are passed on from master distiller to master distiller and updated to suit contemporary tastes.
