Ginger & Pineapple

Okushal is more than palate-friendly and easy-going. Made to mix well with almost anything and anyone.
It absolutely sparkles with water, soda or tonic water. It positively shines with fruit, herbs and spice. And it most certainly won’t shirk a date with your favourite meal or dessert. In fact, it’s happiest in the company of significantly unexpected others, so we encourage you to try something new with it.
