Kakuzo Cherry Liqueur 70cl 20% ABV - Bitter Vodka Liqueur

Delicious cherries, aromatic gentian and tart grapefruit form the base of this distinctive bitter: a fruit tinged masterpiece, the smooth notes of cherry are perfectly balanced by the warming touch of gentian. Then comes the vodka: expertly filtered, triple-distilled and undoubtedly soft - this is the unique character of Kakuzo.

About the Producer
Kakuzo, made by tea: an innovative new vodka, inspired by Eastern philosophy. In 1906, Okakura Kakuzo wrote an English-language essay explaining the philosophy and cultural significance of tea in Japan. The Way of Tea, he said, was a route to purity and harmony.

Kakuzo is an evolution in spirits - achieving a level of subtlety and sophistication of flavour not tasted before in flavoured vodkas. This tea infusion has nuanced notes of malty sweetness, botanical bitterness and citrus sharpness.

The search for balance between yin and yang, so important in the tea ceremony, is expressed in the creation of Kakuzo. The measuring of three different tea varieties (from Japan, China and India) for the blend; the perfect duration of the infusion (too short and the flavour would not be bold enough, too long and it would be bitter and tannic); the relationship between the fragrant flavours of tea and the purity of premium vodka.

Kakuzo can be served heated like a sake, long with bitter lemon or in cocktails, where the complexity of its flavour profile can be explored. As Okakura Kakuzo himself said: "Perfection is everywhere if we only choose to recognise it".
