Doburoku-zukuri is popular in Yamagata, where the tradition of “Tono Monogatari”, which became the foundation of Japanese folklore, has been passed down. We created a highly drinkable highball-style cocktail by combining doburoku with cucumber, the favorite food of the rather charming Kappa, who appears in Tono folklore and is punished for trying to annoy people, and added sourness with yuzu.
