Minoki Japanese Rum is born from rich Japanese legends. It is named after Minoki - the princess of the ocean, which you will also find in the design alongside a dragon and Mount Fuji as symbols of Japan.
Minoki Mizunara Cask Finished Rum is blended from the finest Japanese and Pacific rums, which were finally aged in Japanese Mizunara oak barrels. This rum was then pre-filtered through purified driftwood and bleached Japanese corals. The result is a perfectly smooth rum that smells of Japanese tropical fruits with a finish of spiced vanilla notes.

135° East Hyogo Dry Gin is a gin that transcends the boundaries of ordinary things, delivering a unique tasting experience in the style of Hyogo. In addition to the traditional 50 botanicals used to produce dry British gin, 135° East also includes a blend of 5 Japanese botanicals carefully selected by distilling expert Kimio Yonezawa.
This gin is named after the 135th degree of east longitude, which runs directly through the city of Akashi, where this gin is produced. The city has served as a reference point for determining the standard Japanese time zone since 1888.
Akashi Tai Shiraume Ginjo Umeshu is an exceptional Japanese plum liqueur known as umeshu, created by combining high-quality Japanese ume plums and premium Ginjo sake. This beverage comes from the craft brewery Akashi-Tai, where it is produced in small batches under the guidance of the experienced sake master – Toji Kimia Yonezawa. The result is an elegant and harmonious drink with natural sweetness, gentle acidity, and a rich fruity character typical of traditional Japanese umeshu.
The Yonezawa family has been producing sake since 1856. For generations, they have used only carefully selected local ingredients and traditional methods that emphasize the purity and quality of the final product. The production of Akashi-Tai sake takes place in smaller batches, allowing for maximum control over every step of the process.
As a result, the drinks from this brand maintain an authentic craft character and high quality. The production of sake also utilizes premium A+ grade Yamadanishiki rice, which is considered one of the best rice varieties for sake production. This adds complexity and depth of flavor to the beverages. Lovers of Japanese drinks will appreciate it similarly to other products in the sake category or traditional fruit liqueurs.
The aroma is dominated by intense notes of ripe Japanese ume plums complemented by subtle floral and fruity nuances. The scent is fresh, sweet, and very inviting. The taste is harmonious and smooth, with a pleasant balance between sweetness and the gentle acidity of the plums. In the background, delicate sake notes emerge, giving the drink an elegant structure and a longer fruity finish.
Akashi Tai Shiraume Ginjo Umeshu is ideal as a digestif after a meal or as part of modern cocktails. It tastes best well chilled, with ice or slightly diluted with soda water. Due to its freshness and fruity flavor, it is also popular as an aperitif or as an unconventional complement to desserts.
