Yoshi Matcha Liqueur

Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

Smooth, lightly sweet, and easy to enjoy after dinner or in a simple cocktail, Yoshi Matcha Liqueur has a mellow, creamy feel that makes it especially appealing to green tea lovers. At 20% ABV, this Japanese liqueur is made in a style that highlights matcha’s vivid character while keeping the texture soft and approachable.

Its flavor leans into earthy matcha, gentle bitterness, subtle sweetness, and a lingering green tea finish. That balance works beautifully with cheesecake, where the rich creaminess softens the tea notes, or with white chocolate, which brings out the liqueur’s sweeter side and makes the matcha taste even more rounded.

Producer Information: BBC Spirits

BBC Spirits is based in Bardstown, Kentucky, a center of American whiskey production, and is the operating name associated with Bardstown Bourbon Company. The business launched in 2014 with the goal of combining Kentucky distilling tradition with a modern, transparent production model. Its approach emphasizes on-site distillation, careful mash bill design, detailed blending, and a strong focus on barrel management, while also working as a custom distilling partner for other whiskey brands. This mix of heritage, technical precision, and innovation has helped position the company as a contemporary bourbon producer with deep roots in the state’s whiskey culture.

Across its wider portfolio, BBC Spirits is known for straight bourbon and rye whiskey in multiple styles, including wheated recipes, high-rye expressions, and limited releases built around maturation and finishing techniques. The company has also developed collaborative bottlings, origin-driven Kentucky whiskey releases, and blends that highlight differences in grain, oak, and aging environment. In addition to its own labels, it plays an important role in contract distillation and whiskey development for outside brands, which broadens its footprint well beyond a single bottle and makes it a significant player in the wider American spirits market.
