British Cassis
In the rolling fields of the Herefordshire farm, grows a tiny currant. Rarely seen and little known, this succulent fruit is harvested under the summer sun and carefully crafted into the very finest cassis.
White Heron use a technique similar to winemaking in order to perfectly capture the intensity of freshly picked British blackcurrants. Once the blackcurrant juice has fermented naturally with champagne yeast, we blend it with a little vodka to fortify and add sugar to bring out the rich fruity flavour.
Jo Hilditch's delicious, award-winning alcholic mixer drinks made with local fruit juices from our beautiful Herefordshire/ Welsh Borders. Try our British Cassis, British Framboise, British Poire & British Fraise.
