: Product Information :
All establishment offer an assortment of Alcohol, Women, and Lodging.
The Summers Moon looks like a regular tavern but comes with added benefits. The main floor is home to its bar and product, not to mention that you can get a cheap meal if you're looking for a quick bite. It has twenty small rooms on the second floor, and a third floor that is off limits. If you have enough money or the right connections you can be privy to the more discrete stuff in the Summers Moon basement.
Silk Peach has the largest gross income yearly and the highest employment rate of all of Yuki Kita's businesses with a predicted volume doubling in the next few years. The Silk Peach sells higher class Alcohol that is both more expensive and smoother going. The men and women that work in the Silk Peach are dressed in Silks and smell of perfume with little to go on for distinction between one of the working Fille de Joie's and a noble lady. You can tell the difference between a noble lady and an employee of the Silk Peach by a red earrings they all wear. The Silk Peach has 100 rooms for the use of either business or pleasure.
Painted Kiss is the smallest of Yuki's establishments, its a small two story building with only 10 rooms. The main floor is home to a classy but small bar and crap food that is barely palatable. It has fallen on hard times since it was abandoned a year ago after the eruption, but since then Yuki has reopened the Painted Kiss and it has slowly been returning to its own glory.
Each establishment has an alcohol named after the building that is sold exclusively along side the generic wines, Liqueurs and Beers that are brought in- at each location, each establishment serves the "Snow Maiden".
Snow Maiden: A colorless alcohol served at all locations but not available by the bottle. the Snow Maiden's base is made from fermented rice (like sake) but it is mixed with multiple other ingredients and has an almost nonresistant, very mild, mint fragrance. However at the taste it explodes in your mouth making you taste the very heart of winter with a slight sweet taste like a snow drop opening up on your taste buds. The Snow Maiden is so strong that it clears the sinuses with the first breath in through the nose, and the first breath out always carries white ice crystals into the room. Snow Maiden has a 74% ABV and customers are cut off at 9 shots, Reports have been given that those that drink 10 or more shots hallucinate a beautiful black haired dancing girl accompanied by snow.
Summer Nights: A very sweet rum made from sugarcane that has a grassy flavor. The alcohol has a dark yellow color and smells like grass, tastes like sugar and grass and has a 54% ABV.
Peach Rain: Tastes like you just shoved a peach into your mouth while pouring ground cloves over your head and a roasted turkey cools behind you. Has a 40% ABV
Green Fang: Also known as "Black Wine" and "Ogre's a**", Green Fang is a mixture of wine, the base ingredients of Snow Maiden with the exclusion of the Mint and winter tastes, and supposedly juice from a swamp frog. Whatever is put in the drink it turns is so black that when you hold it up to the light you get a shimmering green layer at the top. The Alcohol can not stand for to long and must be downed within 15 minutes before it starts to stink. Green Fang tastes like a bitter habanero mixed with iron. Served with a salt water chaser, Green Fang has an ABV of 90%.
Bringing all four empty bottles of each of the spirits sold at each establishment might get you a special prize.
