iichiko Frasco 750ml

Size: 750 ml

Type of Shochu: Ko Rui

Main Ingredient: Barley (MUGI)

Alcohol: 30

Distillery Location: Oita Prefecture

Food Pairings: Pairs easily with many dishes, and brings out the flavor of companion ingredients.

Tasting Notes: Clean aroma, rich body, and deep flavor.  This barley shochu is positioned at the top of the iichiko product range. Its highly pearled, low-temperature fermentation, and all-koji production, which uses barley koji only, means it can be enjoyed on the rocks, with cold water, or with hot water on winter days. Experience its supreme taste.

Distillery: Sanwa Shurui Co., LTD (founded: 1958)

The lush greenery, refreshing breezes and pure cool water of Oita Prefecture provide a fitting setting for the distillery and brewery of Sanwa Shurui Co., Ltd.  For although they employ different ingredients and processes to produce iichiko barley shochu, Wakabotan sake and Himiko ajimu wine, the underlying concept is always the same: "Quality comes first." They begin by carefully selecting the finest natural ingredients and water. Then apply their advanced brewing and distilling technologies to produce shochu and sake of the very highest quality.  This is the way they have always worked-and the way they always will.
