Summer's finest strawberries, picked at full ripeness and macerated simply and purely - that's the philosophy on which Vedrenne of Nuits-Saint-Georges has built its entire reputation as a fruit liqueur house, and this Creme de Fraise is one of the clearest proofs of it.
Ekspertens beskrivelse
Vedrenne's Creme de Fraise is a French strawberry liqueur at 15% ABV, produced by Vedrenne in Nuits-Saint-Georges from macerated strawberries.
Vedrenne was founded in 1923 by Joseph Védrenne, who located the distillery in Nuits-Saint-Georges at the heart of Burgundy. Since then the family has specialised in macerating single fruits, with strawberry being one of the classic flavours in the range. The method preserves the fruit's natural freshness and acidity, without artificial flavourings.
Smag
The nose offers fresh strawberries, a light floral sweetness and a mild, juicy berry aroma. The palate is soft and full with plenty of strawberry up front, followed by a light tart edge that provides balance and freshness without becoming artificial or overly sweet.

Vedrenne pioneered single-fruit maceration as early as the 1930s, and strawberry was one of the very first flavours the family perfected - a tradition that still lives on in this Creme de Fraise almost a hundred years later.
