- Yuzu liqueur produced by the Tsutsumi Distillery in the Kumamoto Prefecture in Kyushu, Japan
- Fresh yuzu peel is macerated overnight in neutral rice spirit then distilled via pot still; this foundational base spirit then sees an additional 3-week maceration of fresh yuzu peel
- Sweetened with Hokkaido sugar beet sugar
- A nose of fresh yuzu peel oils and candied lemon extends to a plucky palate with light acidity and highlights of white flower; subtle violet and delicate tannin linger on the finish
- 24% ABV
This lovely liqueur offers a silky rendering of Japan’s most beloved aromatic citrus fruit. All yuzu used in this expression comes from a 90-plus–year–oldgrove that uses no pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Though not high enough in alcohol to act as a substitute for a triple sec or curaçao in classic margaritas, try this liqueur in a shochu- or sake-based sour for a low-ABV interpretation!
