Kirin Hyoketsu: the Refreshing Taste of Japan

Looking for a refreshing Japanese premix with a crisp, fruity flavour? Meet Kirin Hyoketsu the Japanese vodka soda that has made its way from Japan to Australia and is quickly becoming a favourite for those who love refreshing, easy drinking RTDs.

Crafted by Kirin, one of Japan’s best-known beverage producers, Kirin Hyoketsu combines vodka, soda and natural fruit juice to create a clean, vibrant drink with plenty of flavour and a refreshing finish. Whether you’re relaxing at home, firing up the BBQ or catching up with friends, Hyoketsu is an easy choice when you want something chilled and refreshing.

What is Kirin Hyoketsu?

Kirin Hyoketsu is a Japanese style vodka premix, inspired by the traditional Japanese chu-hai. The range is designed around a simple combination of vodka, sparkling soda and natural fruit flavours.

What makes Hyoketsu particularly distinctive is its Hyoten Toketsu technology. The natural fruit juice is frozen at subzero temperatures to help lock in the freshness and intensity of the fruit flavour. The result is a bright, crisp taste without an overly sweet finish.

Kirin Hyoketsu first launched in Japan in 2001 and has since become a major name in the Japanese premix category. Australia was also the first country outside Japan to receive the brand, bringing a taste of Japanese RTD culture to Aussie drinkers.
