For this Cassis, the sugar content has been reduced by half to perfectly balance the ratio of acidity and sweetness. As with most Freimeisterkollektiv products, as many ingredients as possible for this liqueur come from a single source. The Mozer family in the Hohenlohe district of Baden-Württemberg grows the blackcurrants themselves and processes them on their own farm.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eNose\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eBerries, floral notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003ePalate\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eRipe blackcurrants, tropical fruits, earthy notes, fine acidity, velvety mouthfeel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eFinish\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eRoses, citrus, tannins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol content\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e: 25% vol.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eTraditional recipes describe Crème de Cassis as a macerated liqueur in which blackcurrants are steeped in alcohol. Fritz-Martin Mozer eschews this maceration for his recipe, pressing the blackcurrants fresh instead. This direct or mother juice – roughly two kilos of berries are needed for one liter of juice – is the base of the liqueur, which is then extended with blackcurrant brandy. This brandy is obtained by Fritz-Martin Mozer through maceration and distillation and was developed specifically for the Freimeisterkollektiv. The addition of further flavorings or citric acid is completely avoided.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFritz-Martin Mozer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eMaster Fruit Grower and Distiller | Hohenlohe\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSince 1893\u003c\/strong\u003e, the \u003cstrong\u003eMozer family\u003c\/strong\u003e has managed the Lerchenhof farm on a small hill between the \u003cstrong\u003eOhrn Valley\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ePfedelbach\u003c\/strong\u003e, situated amidst the orchards of the Hohenlohe district in \u003cstrong\u003eBaden-Württemberg\u003c\/strong\u003e. This location in the gentle hilly landscape has allowed the Mozer family to specialize in the \u003cstrong\u003ecultivation of apples, pears, and berries\u003c\/strong\u003e, which are nurtured and maintained in their variety of cultivars. Fritz-Martin Mozer took over the distillery from his father and has been producing liqueurs for over 20 years. He is supported at the still by his wife Christine and son Konstantin. The Mozer family processes and distills only their own fruit. In addition to red and blackcurrants as well as various apple and pear varieties, the Lerchenhof also grows quince, sour cherry, mirabelle plum, Lör plum, and damson.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Freimeisterkollektiv (FMK)","offers":[{"title":"0.5 L","offer_id":54886150865229,"sku":"730310","price":28.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0.2 L","offer_id":54886150897997,"sku":"742500","price":13.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/2822\/0749\/files\/742500.jpg?v=1790587775","url":"https:\/\/schoenbichler.at\/en\/products\/freimeisterkollektiv-cassis","provider":"Theehandlung Schönbichler","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
