Possibly the greatest fruit on earth – combined with Premium Sake for the perfect Aperitif!

The yuzu citrus fruit has been growing in Japan for more than 1000 years. Extracted in a complicated and expensive process from pulp and rind, Yuzu has a truly exceptional and intense flavor. Its complex aroma is utterly unique and its fresh citrus scent and the absence of the astringent acid of the lemon combine into an inimitable arrangement of sweet, bitter, salty and sour. In this combination with premium sake Yuzu turns into a uniquely refreshing aperitif. Try it simply over ice as ‘Yuzu Crush’ or add some bubbly for extra fizz!

For many centuries, the ume tree has been a symbol for the coming of spring in both China and Japan, because it blossoms early, at the end of January. Similar to the famous sakura cherry blossoms, the ume bloom is celebrated with countless festivals and special ceremonies. Japanese rarely eat ume directly – rather the fruit is enjoyed as a pickled ‘plum’ over rice or mixed with shochu as a traditional plum wine. Our version, however, is made with premium Sake to balance the acidity of the ume with the soft sweetness of the Sake. Enjoy over ice!

Japanese legend has it that Momo (Japanese peach) has powers against evil – Momotarō, for instance, is a boy who has been sent from heaven in a peach, and who later on liberates an island from occupying demons. While we cannot claim a demon-repelling function for Île Four Momo, we are pretty sure that this combination of aromatic momo and smooth premium sake gives you an incredibly fruity and creamy taste. Add some bubbly for a delicious Sake-Bellini!
