Suntory Square Litchi Liqueur

Lychees have an ancient tradition in Asia and were cultivated in China around 3000 years ago. There, the lychee is still regarded as the best of all fruits. In addition to Asia, lychees are now also grown in South Africa and Brazil. In recent decades, the deliciously sweet fruit has also become increasingly popular in Western countries. With Suntory Square Litchi Liqueur, you can get the full lychee flavor in your drink. The juice and pulp of lychee fruits from Taiwan are used in the production process. The gentle sweetness and elegant aroma will win you over from the very first sip.

The Suntory Square Litchi Liqueur is versatile and a dream for fruity and special cocktails. Suntory recommends combining grapefruit and orange with this liqueur.

Suntory is one of the five largest spirits producers in the world and Japan's largest whisky producer with a market share of 70%. The company was founded in 1899 by Shinjiro Torii and is one of the oldest in the distribution of alcoholic beverages. Originally, Suntory was a brewery and distillery, but the business areas were constantly expanded. Today, Suntory produces almost everything, from coffee and soft drinks to fine wines, alcopops, beer, ice cream and flowers. The company is headquartered in Osaka. In April 2014, Suntory bought the spirits giant Beam Inc. for 13.6 billion dollars. Since then, the company has been represented in Germany as Beam Suntory. The Suntory Group includes brands such as Laphroaig, Maker's Mark, Canadian Club, Sauza Tequila and the German winery Robert Weil. However, Suntory became known beyond Japan for its excellent whiskies such as Yamazaki and Hibiki. The Yamazaki single malt was launched in 1984 and won the gold medal at the International Spirit Competition (ISC) in the UK for the first time in 2003 and has since been celebrated as the best-selling Japanese single malt. Suntory ISC has won the coveted "Distiller of the Year" award several times in a row. Nowadays, the company can hardly save itself from prizes for its great whiskies. Suntory also became famous through the film "Lost in Translation" by Sofia Coppola with Bill Murray in the leading role. This is where the famous quote "For relaxing times make it Suntory time!" came from, which Bill Murray had to recite in a commercial for Hibiki 17. Many claim that this is where the boom in Japanese whisky really began.
