The light and velvety mouthfeel glides effortlessly, underscored by the smooth mellowness of brown rice which lends a distinctive character to the drink.
The journey culminates in a captivating finish, where notes of banana bread and cashew nuts emerge, enticing with their comforting warmth. A subtle tartness from raspberries adds complexity, with a final zesty orange zing that leaves a memorable impression. This shochu stands out not only for its exceptional flavor profile but also for its storied craftsmanship and rarity.
