"Sakura Winter Bloom" – A touch of lightness in the glass
For anyone who wants to treat themselves to a moment of lightness in the middle of winter: even when the air outside is cold and clear, this cocktail brings a delicate hint of cherry blossom to the winter season. "Sakura Winter Bloom" combines the depth of aged rum with the elegant freshness of rosé vermouth and the delicate, almost poetic floral notes of Dover Sakura liqueur. A drink that warms you up and at the same time lets you dream of warmer days.

Exclusively with us: Akazake - a rarity with 1,200 years of history
Akazake is an absolute rarity from Kumamoto. Only two sake breweries still produce Akazake today - and one of them is our producer Zuiyo, which produces something particularly delicious with Tohi Aka-shu Akazake! Akazake is an ancient sake variety with a characteristic reddish-brown color and a history dating back over 1,200 years. Although the production process is similar to that of "normal" sake, Akazake is unique because wood ash is added during the production process.

Introduced: Ten Sho Chu by Ooyama Jinchichi Shoten from Ibusuki
The Ten Sho Chu is a very special sweet potato shochu (imo shochu), as the yeast and koji for this shochu were grown in a NASA space shuttle in zero gravity. Incidentally, "Ten Sho Chu" means space shochu and is also an amusing play on words in relation to shochu. This great craft spirit is normally only available in liquor stores in Kagoshima Prefecture. And also from us!

The Niseko Coffee Shochu takes the lemon sour to a whole new level. The coffee flavour harmonizes particularly well with the taste of fresh lemon.
