Potato shochu

Carefully selected potatoes are prepared with shiro koji (white koji mold). This treasured shochu is made to have a higher concentration than others, then matured in Japanese oak casks for more than 7 years. It can be a great dessert drink. It has an elegantly sweet aroma developed through maturation in casks and a starchy potato umami that unfolds on your palate.
