Product details

Amabuki Blood Orange Apollon is a vibrant umeshu (plum wine) that harmoniously blends tradition with innovation. Crafted by Amabuki Shuzo, a brewery established in 1688 in Saga Prefecture, Japan, this unique liqueur showcases the brewery's commitment to quality and creativity. Amabuki Shuzo is renowned for its use of "flower yeast," strains of yeast derived from various flowers, which impart distinctive aromas and flavors to their sake. In Blood Orange Apollon, the brewery combines its signature flower yeast sake with the rich, sweet-tart juice of Italian blood oranges, creating a liqueur that embodies the warmth and vitality of the sun, aptly named after the Greek sun god, Apollo.

This 9% ABV liqueur presents a jewel-like red hue, a testament to the anthocyanins in the blood orange pulp. On the palate, it offers a delightful balance of sweet and sour flavors, with a seductive aroma that stimulates the senses and a lingering finish that perfectly balances bitter and pleasant notes. The inclusion of blood orange pulp adds a juicy texture, enhancing the overall tasting experience. Versatile in its enjoyment, Blood Orange Apollon can be savored chilled, on the rocks, or mixed with soda or yogurt drinks in a 1:1 ratio for a lively and delicious cocktail. Its refreshing profile makes it an excellent aperitif and a delightful companion to a variety of dishes, including spicy snacks, fruits, and vegetables.
