A wonderful crème de cassis made from Somerset blackcurrants which our customers rate as being as good as its French cousins!

Add a tiny amount to an ordinary white wine to create the classic Kir.

Or add bubbles ( Blanc de blanc or cava both work well) to treat yourself to a Kir Royale.

If you are beastly rich you can use champagne....

According to Lynne, who we met at Salisbury market on 19th July, in Brittany they drink a Kir de Bretagne made with local cider. 

We will be testing that idea at Salisbury market with Rawlins Cider.

Does Kir de Somerset have a similar ring?
