Briottet Crème de Framboise (Raspberry) 70cl: A Burst of Summer Berries

A Delightful Raspberry Liqueur for Every Occasion

Indulge in the vibrant taste of summer with Briottet Crème de Framboise, a captivating raspberry liqueur bottled in France. This 70cl bottle offers an exquisite expression of fresh raspberries, perfect for sipping neat, using in cocktails, or drizzling over desserts.

Production Process: Capturing the Essence of Raspberries

Briottet crafts this delightful liqueur using a traditional method that prioritises quality and flavour. The process begins with a meticulous selection of 100% natural raspberries. These berries are then macerated (soaked) in a neutral alcohol solution for a minimum of two months. This extended maceration period allows for the delicate flavours and aromas of the raspberries to be fully extracted, resulting in a rich and nuanced liqueur. After maceration, white sugar is added, creating a perfect balance between the sweetness of the raspberries and the subtle spirit warmth. The final product is a smooth and luxurious liqueur bursting with the essence of summer berries.

Tasting Notes: A Symphony of Sweet and Tart Flavours

Aroma: Upon pouring Briottet Crème de Framboise, a burst of fresh raspberries immediately fills the air. The aroma is clean, inviting, and reminiscent of summer berry picking. Hints of underlying sweetness peek through, promising a delightful taste experience.

Palate: The first sip delivers a wave of sweet and tart raspberry flavours that dance on the tongue. The liqueur is beautifully balanced, with the natural sweetness of the raspberries complemented by a touch of acidity that keeps the palate refreshed. The texture is smooth and luxurious, coating the mouth with a velvety sensation. As the flavours develop, subtle notes of floral character emerge, adding complexity to the overall profile. The finish is clean and lingers pleasantly, leaving a lasting impression of summer berries.
