Many customers have wondered why, among our curated fruit liqueurs, peach liqueur was noticeably missing. The reason is simple: there exists a “ceiling” in the Japanese peach liqueur world—a bottle so unrivaled that all others pale in comparison. In such cases, “comparison is the thief of joy.” Introducing the “final boss” of peach liqueur: Hououbiden Ripe Peach Liqueur!

This top-quality bottle is extremely difficult to find on the market for a very practical reason. Packed with abundant fresh peach pulp, it requires strict cold storage and must be consumed within four months of bottling. Factoring in shipping from Japan, import, and delivery to customers, time is extremely tight, and supply from Japan is scarce—making it nearly impossible for large quantities to reach Hong Kong. After much effort, we have secured a small batch, so fruit liqueur lovers shouldn’t miss out!

Pour it into a glass and you’ll see generous chunks of juicy white peach dropping in. The aroma is a delicate, inviting peach fragrance. The taste is simply over the top—each sip bursts with peach juice. The sweetness is moderate, preserving the fruit’s natural freshness. With a nearly 1:1 ratio of fruit pulp to liqueur, it feels as though you’re actually eating fresh peaches. It’s all too easy to “finish” the whole bottle before you know it!

This unique production technique is Hououbiden’s own patented method, akin to molecular gastronomy, extracting peach molecules and infusing them into their ginjo sake. There’s no need to mash the fruit—the sake is already infused with luxurious peach sweetness and aroma, further enhanced by fresh peach pulp. No wonder the peach flavor is so incredibly rich.

This liqueur was awarded the prestigious “Tenka Gomen” title at the 2013 Tenma Tenjin Umeshu Competition, proving its outstanding quality beyond question.
