Gold Tequila
Tequila is a distilled beverage, made only from a specific cultivar of Agave Tequilana called 'Weber Azul' or Blue Agave, native to the states of Jalisco, Colima, Nayarit and Aguascalientes in Mexico. The Blue Agave grows above an altitude of 1500 m and are juicy succulents with spiky fleshy leaves.
Tequila is made around the city of Tequila 40 miles northwest of Guadaljara, and in the Jaliscan Highlands of Central Western Mexico. Mexican laws state that Tequila can only be produces in the state of Jalisco and a few limited municipalities in the other Blue Agave growing regions.
Tequila is 35% to 55% Alcohol by Volume (70 and 110 U.S. proof), it must be at least 40% ABV to be sold as Tequila in the USA.
Tequila is a distilled derivative of the pre-Columbian fermented beverage called pulque, made from the Agave plant. When the Spanish conquistadors ran out of their brandy, they started distilling Agave to produce a distilled spirit. This by 1600s was what Don Pedro Sánchez de Tagle, the Marquis of Altamira, began mass-producing in his distillery near modern day Jalisco and came to be known as Tequila.Creme De Cassis
Crème de cassis is a blackcurrant liqueur. It is sweet and dark liqueur is a specialty of Burgundy but it is also made in Anjou, England, Luxembourg, Alberta, Quebec and Tasmania.
THe quality of creme de cassis depends on the variety and quality of the berries and a liqueur labeled Creme de Cassis de Dijon guarantees that the liqueur is made from berries grown in the commune of Dijon in Burgundy.
A new protected geographical indication Creme de Cassis de Bourgogne was approved and it guarantees a liqueur made with berries from the Burgundy region of France.
As for any other European exotic liqueur, if it is not easily available near you, you can substitute Creme de Cassis with a home made Creme de Cassis or infuse Cassis Syrup in High Proof Alcohol for the effect as the last resort.
