Commitment of Yamamori Seicha

Yamamori Seicha is a company that provides the tea leaves used in LOQUAT Nishiizu's homemade drinks. They use only tea buds grown in their own tea gardens, manufactured in their own factory, and delivered directly from the farm to their customers. Yamamori Seicha's tea leaves use only first-grade tea sprouts and do not use any pesticides during cultivation . As a result, the tea leaves are fragrant, rich in flavor, and have a deep flavor.

Coffee rum: exquisite flavor like chocolate

Next up is coffee rum liqueur . This liqueur is made by soaking our popular dark rum "Kraken" with our espresso beans "Pasalakka" . The spicy and fragrant dark rum is combined with the aroma and bitterness of espresso beans, giving you a chocolate-like flavor. This liqueur can be frozen and enjoyed straight, but we also recommend having it as an after-dinner drink with baked goods .
Also, at BAR, you can add a small amount of fresh cream to make it taste like White Russian. In addition, you can enjoy it as an adult dessert by pouring it over SANTi's milk gelato .

Spiced Rum: What is the Kraken

Kraken is a type of spice dram distilled in the Caribbean and blended with spices such as vanilla, cinnamon, citrus, allspice, cloves and pepper .
