Midori Description
Released in 1978, MIDORI® was the main ingredient highlighted in “The Universe" cocktail, the first prize winner in the U.S. Bartenders’ Guild Annual Competition. Since then, MIDORI® has gained an outstanding reputation among leading bartenders and cocktail designers worldwide for its excellent quality and superb versatility. Deriving its name from the word for green in Japanese, MIDORI® is the original melon liqueur enhanced by premium Japanese musk melons. Its bright green color is distinctive, but the pleasantly sweet liqueur offers great versatility for cocktails, especially those paired with citrus and other fruits.

Wine Enthusiast: 89 Points
You may be surprised to learn this liqueur is made in Mexico-not Japan. Still, most will recognize that textured bottle with the bright neon-green liquid inside. The fragrance is enticing, scented with honeydew, white flowers and fresh green apple. The flavor is sweet, big and melony, with a clean, lightly floral finish. Light bodied, perky and bright, this is meant for mixing.
