Yubari and musk melons — the Japanese fruit sold in wooden presentation boxes — made into a liqueur by Suntory and poured from a frosted green bottle you can identify across a dark room. Midori launched at Studio 54 in 1978 and has never quite stopped being a party.

Questions
What does Midori actually taste like?
Ripe honeydew and cantaloupe with a floral, almost perfumed lift — closer to fresh cut melon than to anything artificial. It is sweet, so it wants lemon or soda alongside it rather than being sipped neat.
Why is it that colour?
Midori means green in Japanese, and the colour was a deliberate design decision from the start — the frosted bottle and the vivid liquid were meant to stand out on a crowded back bar. It has been doing exactly that since 1978.
What is a Japanese Slipper?
Equal parts Midori, triple sec and fresh lemon juice, shaken hard with ice and strained into a coupe. It was created in Melbourne in the mid-1980s and is still the most elegant thing you can do with the bottle.
Who is this a good gift for?
The person with a sense of humour about their drinks cabinet, anyone who loves Japan, and every host who wants something bright on the shelf. It also makes a very good pair with a Japanese whisky — same house, opposite mood.
Can you deliver it directly to the person I'm gifting?
