IPPONGI HANNYA TOU 12% 吟香梅 般若刀 720ml

Crafted by Ippongi Kubo Honten (一本義久保本店) in Fukui Prefecture, Hannya Tou (般若刀) is an innovative spicy plum liqueur that blends the natural sweetness of ripe ume plums with a gentle yet lingering chili heat.

This striking liqueur opens with aromas of honeyed plum and spice, delivering a smooth, luscious body that finishes with a playful warmth. Elegant, bold, and perfectly balanced, it’s a one-of-a-kind experience — ideal for adventurous drinkers and those who appreciate both sweetness and fire.
