Expert Review

Wine Enthusiast 89 Points | The piquant, intense opening bouquet offers prickly darts of black pepper and hot red chili pepper. Palate entry is mildly hot and spicy, giving off deep tastes of dried red chili pepper; at midpalate, there's a brief respite but at the finish the chili pepper heat returns, most pleasantly.

Producer Description 

Massenez Crème de Cassis de Dijon stands as a quintessential representation of the classic French liqueur, distinguished by its rich, velvety texture and deep, almost opulent berry flavor. Originating from the Burgundy region, which is renowned for its exceptional produce, this liqueur harnesses the full potential of the blackcurrant berries. The Massenez family has honed their craft over generations, meticulously selecting only the finest quality fruits.

The process begins with an infusion of these handpicked blackcurrants in alcohol, a step that extracts the vibrant color and intense flavors characteristic of this drink. What follows is a careful balance between sweetness and acidity achieved through expert blending—a hallmark that Massenez has consistently delivered since its inception in 1870.

On the palate, one can discern not just a simple berry note but layers that unfold revealing hints of forest floor and floral undertones—subtleties that speak to its artisanal production methods. The finish is long and luscious without being cloying; it’s this finesse that makes it versatile for sipping neat or as an enhancer in cocktails where it imparts complexity and depth.

Nestled in the heart of France, Distillerie Massenez stands as a beacon of traditional craftsmanship and innovation. Originating from the Alsace region, this distillery has carved out a reputation for creating exceptional spirits that resonate with connoisseurs worldwide.

One cannot speak of Massenez without mentioning their renowned Eaux-de-vie, a clear fruit brandy that captures the essence of its primary ingredient, whether it be pear, apple, or cherry. These Eaux-de-vie are not just drinks; they are an aromatic journey through orchards and traditions.

Another feather in their cap is the creation of Crème de Cassis de Dijon, a sweet blackcurrant liqueur with deep berry flavors that has become synonymous with quality. It’s often used to craft the famous Kir cocktail when mixed with white wine or adds a fruity zest to various culinary delights.

Meet Tubi 60, Israel’s best unkept secret you’ve probably never heard of. A cult favorite among those who have been to Israel, Tubi was little known outside the Holy Land. But the brand recently announced that they would begin selling in the U.S., which is excellent news for those in the know and those who are about to get their first sip of the stuff.

The mysterious liquor is an entity unto its own, a cloudy, yellow beverage with a citrusy bite and herbal undertones. Its logo is “Pure Happiness,” and there are few fans who would argue with that. For the small handful of Americans who’ve tried Tubi, its recent arrival in the States is a dream come true. The liquor’s sharp, pungent aroma is a portal to hazy Thursday nights downing shots of Tubi in a grungy hipster Tel Aviv club that smells like cigarettes and sounds like Berlin house beats.
The distinctive liquor was invented in 2012 by two brothers, Hilal and Yanai Tubi, who worked out of their parents’ apartment in the northern Israeli city of Haifa. They say the idea was to create an alcohol that was “superior” to any other in terms of ingredients, taste, effect, and versatility. By 2013, the success of the brand and growing demand meant the brothers had to move from their parents’ home into their first factory in Haifa, and their continued success found them struggling to keep up with the liquor’s growth demand. By 2014, they were distributing Tubi around the entire country, and by 2015, they’d moved into an even bigger factory.

The spirit is 40 percent alcohol and made from lemons, herbs, flower, and tree extracts. It’s “specifically formulated to provide an uplifting and positive effect,” according to its website. Tubi’s vague herbal blend leaves much to the imagination, but the drink is approved both by the Israeli Health Ministry and now by the FDA.

Released after Passover each year, this Wheat Recipe Bourbon stands alone, a tribute to the legacy of America’s oldest continually-operating distillery.
