Midori Mezcal - Agave at its best

Mezcal is right on trend, no question about it. The agave distillate is characterized by a beautiful, smoky note and can be fantastically combined with fruity liqueurs. As in this case with the Kanade white peach liqueur and Midori melon liqueur.

First-class sesame shochus from Japan's south: Beniotome Shuzo

Beniotome Shuzo was founded in 1977 in Kurume in Fukuoka Prefecture on the Japanese island of Kyūshū. In 1978, the world's first spirit made from sesame was produced here. The inventor of the sesame shochu was the then 65-year-old Haruno Hayashida. After many attempts, she finally succeeded in creating the intense and complex taste of a sesame shochu and became a pioneer in this field.

Tokyo Whisky & Spirits Competition (TWSC): These spirits received awards

The results of this year's Tokyo Whisky & Spirits Competition (TWSC) have been announced. A total of 15 spirits from our range were awarded a medal. The Tokyo Whisky & Spirits Competition has been held since 2019 and the Shochu section is particularly noteworthy. In no other spirits competition are so many shochus tasted as at the competition in Tokyo.

New from us: The Crazy Octopus Chili-Shochu

New to our range is the Crazy Octopus Chili Shochu. Made to accompany the famous Japanese dish takoyaki, this shochu is not for the faint-hearted or oversensitive palates. The spiciness is surprising and thrilling from the very first sip, while the taste is extremely invigorating and refreshing. In combination with soda or as an ingredient for spicy cocktails, Crazy Octopus is an unbeatable secret weapon!

Refreshingly tangy: Japanese highball!

One drink that everyone in Japan really knows is the highball (ハイボール), which is served in every izakaya and is as much a part of Japan's drinking culture as sake and shochu. The highball became popular in Japan shortly after the end of the Second World War and has been the most popular way to enjoy whisky there since the 1950s.
