About the wine
Shiso (or perilla) is a traditional Japanese spice, with an exotic, slightly minty aroma and the beautiful, approximately one meter high plant impresses with purple leaves and pink flowers. Shiso contains a lot of vitamin A and vitamin C and is primarily used to season Japanese dishes such as sushi, sashimi or tempura and is essential for serving umeboshi. However, the leaves are also used to make aromatic herb mustard or a type of pesto.

Tasting note
The Aka Shiso is a fruity-sweet and light liqueur made from red shiso, which already delights with its natural color. Refreshing, promising and mild on the nose. Pleasantly earthy, minty and naturally fruity on the palate, with notes of dark berries, cassis, anise, cinnamon and licorice. A tasty aperitif drink, low in alcohol.
Culinary recommendation
Goes well with mineral, tonic or dry sparkling wine. Can also be enjoyed warm in winter. Also as an aperitif or for dessert or as an ingredient for delicious cocktails.
