Released with the desire to know how to enjoy sake, mainly targeting young people who have few opportunities to drink sake.

It is a fruity liqueur with a good balance of fruit juice and sake, making the most of the sharpness of Kubota. Alcohol content is 9 degrees.

"Kubota Yuzu Liqueur" Yuzu is the only area in Kochi Prefecture that mainly ships "Tama Yuzu" as it is, and "Tama Yuzu" from the Monobe area and Reihoku area, which boasts the largest shipment volume in Japan. "Hon Yuzu" is used. The original aroma of yuzu is strong, and the juice is characterized by a strong acidity. The fruit juice is made by gently squeezing the whole yuzu peel and suppressing the squeezing rate so that you can feel the sweetness with less acidity and bitterness.


The base is "Kubota Senju Junmai Ginjo" with a mild scent and a gentle acidity. It brings out the original refreshing scent of Yuzu and the faint sweetness. A light mouthpiece that is easy to drink, whether rock or straight. You can enjoy it in various ways, such as by dividing it with soda or tea to make a cocktail, or by freezing it to make sherbet.


The label is a color reminiscent of the fruit of Yuzu. The gradation is a mixture of watercolors, expressing the soft taste of yuzu that spreads when you put it in your mouth, and the marriage with sake.
