From Wine Trading to a Passion for Liqueurs
In 1836, in the heart of Dijon, James Demontry, then owner of vineyards in Chambolle-Musigny, founded a wine trading house. This marked the beginning of a family adventure that would span centuries. In the early 20th century, responding to the growing popularity of the "blanc-cassis" aperitif, Edmond Briottet, James's son-in-law, decided to focus entirely on producing Crème de Cassis, gradually moving away from wine trading. This pivotal shift led the house to specialize in fine liqueurs.
Craftsmanship Passed Down Through Generations
Since its inception, Maison Briottet has remained an independent family-run business. Six generations have succeeded one another, each contributing to the legacy while preserving traditional production methods. Today, Claire and Vincent Briottet, representing the sixth generation, passionately uphold this heritage, blending respect for tradition with innovation to meet the expectations of liqueur enthusiasts worldwide.
Crème de Cassis de Dijon: A Local Icon
The house's flagship product, Crème de Cassis de Dijon, is crafted from the "Noir de Bourgogne" blackcurrant variety, renowned for its exceptional aromatic qualities. The berries, harvested exclusively in Burgundy, are macerated in neutral alcohol following a recipe unchanged for decades. This artisanal process ensures a rich, intense, and authentic liqueur, truly reflecting the Burgundy terroir.
A Diverse Range of Artisanal Liqueurs
Beyond Crème de Cassis, Maison Briottet offers around sixty liqueurs and fruit creams, ranging from classic flavors like raspberry and vineyard peach to more adventurous creations such as green tea hibiscus liqueur. Each product is crafted with the same commitment to quality and authenticity, showcasing the house's unique expertise. This diversity reflects a constant desire to innovate while honoring tradition.
International Recognition and Global Reach
With its expertise and product quality, Maison Briottet now exports its liqueurs to over 30 countries, accounting for 65% of its revenue. This international presence attests to the house's esteemed reputation, continually captivating discerning palates around the globe. Each exported bottle serves as an ambassador of Dijon craftsmanship and the richness of the Burgundy terroir.
