Description
Burgundy
Fruits Liqueurs

Burgundy is not just famous for its wines but also for blackcurrant (cassis) which has been cultivated there for over four centuries. Since the famous crème de Cassis invention in 1841, the berry production has been developed. The nation’s distillers continue to produce some 16 million tons annually.
Associated with an aligoté white wine, another local speciality, Burgundy’s blackcurrant liqueur produces the famous kir aperitif. Its also used for many other recipes of cocktails.
Liqueur companies are also working with other local fruits like the Pêche de Vigne (peach from the vineyard) from the Burgundian slopes, Lloyd George Raspberries, Montmorency Sour Cherries, Chalonnaise Black Cherries or Monts du Lyonnais Soft Stone Apricot.
For Eaux-de-Vie, local companies buy local Williams pears from the orchards. And Marc and Fine de Bourgogne, the producers have supply from the best appellations in the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune areas like Chambolle-Musigny, Gevrey-Chambertin, Vosne-Romanée or Pommard.

Joseph Cartron

Joseph Cartron has been and remains a family business since 1882, with strong roots in the town of Nuits-Saint-Georges in the heart of Burgundy’s cru vineyards.
Since July 2011, Judith Cartron is President of the company, thus representing the fifth generation and the first woman at the head of the company.
For the production of its Crèmes and Liqueurs, the company selects the fruit varieties the closest in spirit to the Burgundian terroir, the most aromatic, those that are most likely to reveal their very singular perfume in pure alcohol and this even if they are more fragile, more costly and more difficult to find.
For the production of its Eaux-de-Vie, Joseph Cartron buys the whole harvest of Williams pears from the orchards, including the big fruits, the tastier, those usually kept for table consumption.
