From the manufacturer


Big in Japan. Now in the UK!
Suntory Minus 196 is made from Shochu, Vodka, Soda, and uses Suntory’s unique Freeze Crush Technology that freezes and crushes real fruit to capture every bit of bold fruit flavour.
Available in two refreshing flavours: Lemon and grapefruit.
18+ Drink Responsibly
WHOLE
We carefully select the fullest, juiciest fruits around. We put the whole fruit to use, from skin to seed, so no flavour goes to waste.
FREEZE
Now we get scientific. That fruit is submerged in liquid nitrogen and flash frozen at an extreme -196 degrees Celsius, capturing every drop of natural flavour.
CRUSH
Finally, the frozen fruit is crushed into smithereens and the powder is infused into the spirit for a full flavour hit. No compromises.

Tastes the same, although only 6% instead of 9%. It's really nice, strong lemon flavour, and no taste of alcohol. I wish it was cheaper, but it's really good.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 January 2025Flavour Name: GrapefruitSize Name: 330ml (Pack of 12)Verified PurchaseI am always on the look for Japanese alcohol here in the UK and seeing these in the black Friday sale I thought I'd take a shot on them. I was not disappointed, you can taste the fruit punch through the drink and they hit hard, but they go down smooth. They are expensive but the quality is there, and the drinkability is high. I usually have a tipple of two cans after work and I feel a nice buzz and relax from them.
Very much recommend!

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 August 2024Flavour Name: LemonSize Name: 330ml (Pack of 12)Verified PurchaseThis is known as "Strong Zero" in Japan - obviously for the UK market it's not AS strong, but like Chris Broad from the YouTube series, "Abroad in Japan" says, two cans will definitely send you to Narnia. Or maybe my alcohol tolerance is low. In any case, definitially will remind you of your trip to Japan should you already know the taste, and for those who have yet to try it, give a taste of one of Japan's favourite drinks a go. You won't regret it.
