Naturally fermented in the bottle, this well balanced sake uses water from Mount Adatara and the most highly polished grains of rice. Light notes with hints of citrus and melon
Jinzu is the marriage of British gin with the delicate flavour of cherry blossom and yuzu citrus fruit, finished with smooth Japanese sake
A Japanese-inspired gin from The Cambridge Distillery, combining juniper, shisho leaf, sesame seeds, cucumber, sansho and yuzu fruit – a uniquely herbaceous and spicy gin
Nikka From The Barrel offers the perfect balance of toffee sweetness and rich malty flavour, with a tinge of smoke for complexity and depth. Floral nose, with a touch of orange peel and apricots - it is big and wellbalanced at first, some spicy oak and ripe fruit coming through and then a tickle of fire and oak at the finish
Fresh and clean on the nose with aromas of candied lemon peel and rich cake slices. Robust and spicy on the palate, richly textured with cinnamon and clove with a citrus tinge to lighten the load. A harmonious finish with dense spices, rich oak, lemon and orange
The nose has good body with plenty of nut oils and zest, a pleasant floral character with a little tropical fruit and a rooty note. The palate is smooth and soft with good sweetness and winter spice. A lovely citrus note develops with more tropical fruit and rum. The finish is medium with fruit and zest

The Japanese traditionally drink this tea with their meals and it is considered a classic, everyday tea. The large leaf is taken from the lower shoots of the tea plant. The leaves are rich in minerals, but contain up to 70% less caffeine than Gyokuro teas. The taste is very discreet and slightly grassy
This remarkable Japanese delicacy is a green bancha tea with brown toasted rice added. It is a Japanese favourite. This came about because rice was cheaper than tea, so the tea was bulked up with rice. Today we drink it because of its wonderful toasty taste. A full-bodied and sweet green tea with a delightful bakey character
Sencha is Japan's most popular tea. Sakura is the Japanese for cherry blossom. Just the right amount of cherry has been added to give this tea a sublime mixture of sweetness and astringency with cherry
This connoisseur white tea is picked in the Spring and dried without rolling. The tea is then scented with Jasmine blossoms over three consective nights. Very low in caffeine and very high in antioxidants
Medium bodied with a sweet bitter taste with unique notes of cedar and a complex, yet mild, aroma
Created using the finest of rices for sake – Yamada Nishiki - in an almost entirely unpolished form
From lightly milled and polished rice, the sort of honest Sake the salarymen in Japan drink on their way home! Perfect served hot with warm little plates'
Best enjoyed at room temperature with hotter Best enjoyed at room temperature with hotter dishes such as Teriyaki and Teppanyaki dishes
Fine, floral and delicate – the correct accompaniment to Sashimi
A refreshing, delicate and dry white wine, using Japan's native Koshu grapes. Think of it as an authentic local alternative to Muscadet or Pinot Grigio. It's well worth a try and a fine match for subtly-flavoured Sushi or Tempura dishes
Naturally fermented in the bottle, this well balanced sake uses water from Mount Adatara and the most highly polished grains of rice. Light notes with hints of citrus and melon
Wonderfully soft and gluggable, with elegant flavours of pears and sherbert
Intensely flavoured, dry sparkling rosé from Pinot Noir. Half the price of pink Champagne and better than many! Captivating red-fruited palate
Fresh sourdough, magnolia and lily scents mingle with a hint of smoke over a core of greengage, red plums and dessert apples. The palate is vivid, almost vibrantly crunchy with precise, structured yet ripe acidity
This famous house, which remains family-owned, is making wonderfully elegant, well-aged wines. This is their classic Champagne, which has powerful biscuity aromas and generous fruit on the palate. Very dry, but with gorgeous nutty, honeycomb richness to flesh it out. Sumptuous
Terrific Chenin nose: pears and honey. Bright, citrusy, with pleasing accents of pear and tangerine. Attractively rounded
Big flavours of green apples, peach, grapefruit and spice
Surprisingly bright and fresh it's rather like a fuller bodied Muscadet with plenty of citrusy fruit
Displays a richly structured palate featuring layers of ripe fruit, notes of ginger and the long mineral finish so typical of the Awatere Valley
A pleasingly bright and restrained example: gently leafy aromas, followed by a crisp bite of lime with notes of green pepper and gooseberry
Intense flavours of ginger, orange zest, grapefruit, peaches and a very long mouth-filling finish
Flaunts a bouquet of fresh lime coupled with subtle hints of musk: the juicy, vibrant palate shows luscious citrus and a crisp mineral acidity
Classic Loire Sauvignon Blanc. Intense, tangy and complex. A blend of crisp fruit and subtle minerality. Very stylish
Utter class! A beautifully fine, lightly oaked, white Burgundy, showing rounded fruit with cream and oatmeal notes
A classic dry southern French rosé made from Grenache and Cinsault grapes. A pretty, fresh mouthful of strawberry and cranberry
Bright, ripe strawberry, raspberry and cranberry fruit and plenty of freshness on the finish
This elegant dry rose shows aromatic notes of grapefruit and delicate citrus hints
Red and black fruit aromas such as cherries and blackberry interwoven with a subtle and spicy bay leaf character
Unoaked, red cherry with purplish hints denoting its youth with raspberry notes. Fresh, a bit spicy and well balanced. Elegant finish
Plums, blackberries and a touch of vanilla: fresh fruit flavours, supported by a touch of spice
A charming New World Pinot, fresh, mildly crunchy and perfumed. Juicy red and black cherry flavours. Mid-weight and with the old barrels lending the merest hints of spice
Melting red fruit, very ripe, almost winegummy, with interesting developing hints of liquorice and tobacco. Powerful, but fine, soft tannins
Medium-bodied but so mouth filling with intense blueberries, mulberries, vanilla, cinnamon and black pepper
