Iseya Distillery Scarlet Bitter Radice

The Radice Amaro is a root-based amaro. It is made from fresh bergamot, the roots of angelica, licorice, ukogi, and chicory. Also with an addition of the legendary herb "black cumin" that was discovered on a trip to Hong Kong as the final piece to complete the drink. More than 30 types of botanicals are used, and a miraculous yellow (root) amaro was completed.

This is a limited production item and is bottled with a cork stopper. There may be sediment on rare occasions, this is hand-bottled product thus filtration is minimal to keep the character of the drink intact. - Black Market Sake

Founded in 2021 by distiller Tatsuya Motonaga, Iseya Distillery resides in a repurposed traditional house that's more than 100 years old. Having worked in some of the world's most recognised cocktail bars (Shinjuku's Ben Fiddich, Shibuya's Coal Ila and Taipei's Wa-shu) Motonaga got the amaro bug after a huge distillery tour of Europe and the UK. He was hooked by the level of craftmanship, connection to local agriculture that create this drink of epic folkloric proportions. And how lucky are we to now have a Japanese interpretation.
