Kiyoko Yuzu Infused Aperitif
| 1 review
In stockKiyoko Yuzu Infused Aperitif is a Japanese aperitif made by combining pure yuzu juice with Junmai sake. Rather than a classic grape wine, it is a citrus-led aperitif in which the bright character of yuzu is carried by a fresh sake base.
The drink is associated with the Kansai region on Honshu.

Bom Malandro White 2024 is a Portuguese Douro DOC white wine with a fresh, aromatic personality. Its grapes come from high-altitude vineyards above 500 metres in the delimited Douro region, where cooler conditions help preserve natural acidity and aromatic definition.
There is a playful side to the label as well. The wine's mascot, a clever squirrel, refers to nature's mischievous opportunism and the knack of finding the best grapes. That idea suits the wine's style: bright, youthful and fruit-led rather than shaped by oak.
The winemaking is designed to keep that freshness intact. After gentle handling and brief skin contact, the must ferments in stainless steel at controlled temperature. Ageing also takes place in stainless steel with minimal oxygen contact, (…)
