something thrilling for wine lovers......




Okinawa Awamori or Habu Sake is a liquor that includes a well preserved Habu snake coiled inside it. Habu snakes are a species of venomous snakes that are belong to the pit viper family. A bottle of Habu Sake is very expensive and does come with its' very own snake If you're looking for the expensive bottle, look to be paying over $1,000 for it. So why is there a snake at the bottom of the bottle? Habu snakes are believed to have medicinal purposes. The snake's body has many amino acids that are beneficial to humans. When the Habu snake is caught, it is placed inside a bottle of 95 percent alcohol and is left to soak for a month then put into a lower percentage alcohol for another month then again moved to another lower alcoholic percentage mixture and mixed with Okinawa herbs.
