Massenez Distillery - Passion Fruit Liqueur - 20%<\/strong><\/span><\/p>
The Massenez Distillery<\/strong> is located in Dieffenbach-au-Val, in the heart of the prestigious Alsace<\/strong> region, renowned for its rich artisanal heritage and distillation traditions. Founded in 1870 by Jean-Baptiste Massenez<\/strong>, a passionate master distiller, this family-owned house preserves an ancestral know-how passed down through generations. In 1913, Eugène Massenez, the founder's son, innovated by distilling the first wild raspberry eau-de-vie, an exceptional product embraced by the Queen of Sweden, making the distillery an official supplier to royal courts, notably that of the King of Sweden. The distillery's reputation was further strengthened by Gabriel Eugène, the third generation, who skillfully combined tradition and haute cuisine by collaborating with renowned starred chefs such as Paul Bocuse and iconic establishments like La Tour d’Argent. To meet growing demand, a new distillery was inaugurated in 1979. Today, the brand is exported to over 110 countries, reflecting its international reach, while continuously diversifying its range of eaux-de-vie, liqueurs, and premium fruit creams. In 2010, Massenez Distillery joined the ranks of the Grandes Distilleries Peureux<\/strong>. Under the visionary leadership of Bernard Baud, President of Grandes Distilleries Peureux, known notably for their famous Griottines, Massenez Distillery gained new momentum while preserving the authentic identity and tradition of the House.<\/p>
A liqueur<\/strong> is an alcoholic beverage combining a neutral spirit, subtly sweetened and naturally flavored. The fruit cream<\/strong>, representative of this large family of fruity spirits, is mainly distinguished by its very high sugar content. Indeed, the essential difference between a liqueur and a fruit cream lies in the sugar concentration: liqueurs contain a minimum of 100 grams of sugar per liter and an alcohol content between 15 and 55%, while creams exceed 250 grams of sugar per liter, hence their specific name. These products are highly appreciated both for preparing innovative and flavorful cocktails, for enjoying neat as a digestif, or for use in gourmet and refined culinary recipes. Massenez Distillery's passion fruit liqueur, with its 20% alcohol, perfectly embodies the excellence and authenticity of Alsatian spirits, ideal for enhancing your tasting moments.<\/p>
