An original tour suitable for all, young and old. - The "Blackcurrant Experience" tour: fun and interactive museography dedicated to blackcurrants, guided tour of the Maison Védrenne production workshops, tasting in the form of an aperitif lunch with savoury and sweet bites to sublimate blackcurrants in all their forms, accompanied by a blackcurrant cocktail. A tasty way to (re)discover blackcurrants. - Cocktail workshops": on the first Friday of each month (April to October) or on request, mixology takes centre stage at the Cassissium. After a presentation of bar techniques and equipment, two cocktails are presented and created by the participants before being tasted. Creating a cocktail: as a team, you'll have to create a cocktail from a selection of ingredients. Will you be elected mixologist of the evening?
The guided tour of the factory is an opportunity to learn more about the history of the company and to discover the products that contribute to the reputation of Burgundy's gastronomy, including blackcurrants, a major product of the region. The visit ends with a tasting (€9.5 per person, €6.5 for reduced prices and free for children under 12).
