    Our family of 5 had an enjoyable time at Le Cassissium. Although we missed out on the tour, we had a splendid Cassis liquor tasting experience thanks to our host, Jules. Jules was fluent in English and knowledgeable as he answered our many questions. He was also very friendly and enthusiastically introduced us to different combinations of blackcurrant/ cassis liquours. Thanks very much Jules!

    Super friendly staff who were very accommodating. We speak English but managed to join the French tour (so we didn't miss out) and were provided with English text and on the side help from our friendly tour guide who did speak English. It was a great tasting and very informative and interactive.

    Be sure to try tasting the currant liqueur. And be sure to try tasting a fifteen percent liqueur and a twenty percent liqueur to understand how much better the 20% tastes and is richer. The price difference is small. If you've ever been to a winery and taken a tour, then a tour is not necessary. Only if you really want it. We love excursions so we visited here. The production of currant liqueur in such quantity and quality is definitely one of a kind. So if you are in the region, be sure to visit. I liked the service.

    Really worth the trip! Also good for those who drink and those who prefer non-alcoholic alternatives. The tour was informative, interesting, and not too long. The guide, Thomas, kept everyone’s attention and engaged with our group a lot. Wonderful tour and tasting experience. Definitely recommend.

    We had a great time at Le Cassissium. The tour guide Thomas was great and explained everything in great detail while keeping us entertained. The tasting afterwards was the highlight for us and should not be missed. 100% recommend this place!

    21 Euro for 2 persons and 8 minutters!!! No guide in English but was promised a written guide in English but never got one. Most explanations in French and no tasting at the end. Long time since I wasted my money that fast!!

    Excellent museum about the history of cassis and black currant production. Exquisite design, helpful employees and the opportunity to taste-test sirups after the tour. Well-sorted shop with all 49 produced sirups besides the cassis, some of them difficult to find elsewhere. Recommended!

    Interesting place, you get free tastings and then a shop to browse all the lovely blackcurrant delights.

    Pleasant degustation, great choice of flavours, multilingual support, friendly staff - that's all that you need to plunge into the palette of LaCassissium tastes:)

    Good tour, good tasting, would recommend it.

    A 'must see' attraction for the family. Plenty of free parking, and wheel chair friendly entrance at La Cassissium. The wonderful smells of fruit fill the factory. Huge fruit pressed, mega barrels, bigger than a swimming pool with special fruity drinks maturing. Fun for kids too with lots of drawers to open, test-tubes of fruit syrups, bugs that live on fruit. The fun was trying the different flavours in the bar guided by Auroare, who knew everything about fruity drinks!

    Ich finde, hier muss man nicht unbedingt gewesen sein. Gewiss, man kann hier Liköre und Sirups in sehr vielen Geschmacksrichtungen kaufen und probieren. Aber mir kommt das ein bisschen sehr touristisch vor.

    Absolut großartig! Wir haben das Paket gebucht mit der großen Verkostung im Anschluss. Wir hatten das Glück nur zu zweit zu sein, sodass die nette Dame nur für uns Beide zuständig war. Vom Empfang über die Führung mit den Erklärungen und die ausgiebige Verkostung haben wir uns wirklich sehr gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Es hat riesigen Spaß gemacht, die Informationen im Museum sind hervorragend aufbereitet (ALLES auf französisch, englisch UND deutsch!) und die Produkte sind Spitzenklasse (nicht nur der Supercassis). Wir empfehlen es definitiv!!!

    Lots of drinks to try and they’re all good! The personnel were knowledgeable of their products and there is a wide selection of those as well.
