Sake ONO
We’re back again with updates to your drinks cabinet. As the trends compass dial flickers East towards the rise of sake (Japan) and soju (Korea), we’ve got a subtle recommendation for boosting your martini.
Sake ONO is a premium sake from the historic Yoshi No Gawa brewery in Niigata, Japan. Consume it ice cold in a wine glass and you’ll get notes of honeydew and lemon zest. However, combine with vodka, vermouth and a dash of orange bitters in a mixing glass and you’ve got a lower ABV martini with an umami kick.

Down and out and yearning for a life away from earth, Robert Pattinson’s Mickey 17 signs up to be an expendable clone worker on a space colony. Not to give too much away, but Mickey 18 soon turns up and makes things extremely difficult.
Toni Collette and Mark Ruffalo also star in a welcome portion of grand, interstellar black comedy.
