The characteristic of this shochu is its rich and profound barley koji flavor. The solid barley fragrance combines with a sweet aroma comparable with high-quality malt sugar. Sweetness like dry-roasted barley sweets forcefully pervades the palate. You can feel the full-bodied and deep overall flavoring spreading powerfully, while the aftertaste gracefully and elegantly fades. Thanks to its rich flavor, this shochu can be paired with even fatty cuisines and other dishes. It is also a good accompaniment to spicy foods.
