The message
from Sacha contains these words:

Cassis is certainly blackcurrants but you can ask for a Kir Mûres in France

Strawberries steeped in whisky with added sugar make a fine liqueur, and
you'd never know the spirit was whisky.

I made a bottle with wild strawberries this year, and it was rather
disappointing.

Strange, since wild have a much more intense flavour, but I had the same
experience.



The next batch will be with cultivated strawbs.

I like all Kirs but Casis de Dijon is still my favourite in Kir
Royale.
