The White has pronounced flavors of almond and honey with hints of candied orange and can be consumed as an aperitif with blue cheese, as a dessert with peach or apricot cobblers or is also great in cocktails.
There are a few different ways to make troussépinète but Gerard Pagnon uses the original ancient recipe. Young blackthorn shoots are harvested in the spring, then sliced up and allowed to macerate in low alcohol cognac for 1 to 2 months to release the sap. Wine (red or white) is added, as well as some sugar and the blend is adjusted to a final content of 17%, then filtered and bottled. Note: the scientific name for the blackthorn bush is prunus spinosa which produces the popular sloe berries; but berries are not used to produce troussépinète, only the spring shoots full of sap and almond-like flavors.
