Vedrenne has been making liqueurs since 1923 in Nuits-Saint-Georges, in the heart of Burgundy, initially winning recognition for the outstanding quality of its Crèmes de Cassis and fruit liqueurs. Now widely regarded as the third leading French producer of fruit and cocktail liqueurs, and the leader in the upmarket segment for bartenders, mixologists and connoisseurs, Vedrenne combines over a century of expertise with modern processing techniques across a wide range spanning liqueurs, aperitifs, fortified wines, fruit eaux de vie and syrups. The brand operates a museum devoted to Cassis at its main production site, alongside a smaller, more experimental distillery in the Dordogne/Périgord region, and its liqueurs receive numerous international awards each year for exceptional quality.

Vedrenne's approach across its whole range — using French sugar and sucrose syrup, reverse osmosis water and ingredients picked at optimum ripeness, macerated using multiple extraction techniques — shows clearly in this melon liqueur's genuinely fresh, not-too-sweet character, distinguishing it from the artificially sugary melon liqueurs common in the category. Its vivid, bright green colour makes it a genuine visual standout behind the bar, and it's a natural fit for classic serves like the Angel Face cocktail, or paired with an espresso liqueur for a distinctive, unexpected combination. As part of Vedrenne's range of more than 30 cocktail liqueurs — spanning everything from blackcurrant and raspberry to more unusual flavours like this melon and the house's own watermelon — it reflects the same century of maceration expertise behind the celebrated Crème de Cassis. A versatile, refreshing addition for cocktails wanting real tropical character, or simply topped with soda for an easy summer aperitif.
