Celebrating its opening on February 18, Shibuya's new shrine to fruity liquor teams up with Saga prefecture's PR project to bring boozehounds a taste of the southern region's sweet delicacies. During the event, patrons can sample Saga sweets like Maru-boro cakes and yokan jelly, plus locally produced fruit such as strawberries and tangerines, at no extra cost. Shugar Market's already impressive umeshu and fruit liqueur selection will also be complemented by Saga-born varieties until the end of February, while Opening Day and the day after will see special sales of giant fruit parfaits. If you're at all intrigued by colourful and sweet spirits, this looks like one party not to be missed.
