Product Description

“Genshu Yakushima Daishizenrin Mugi” is an exquisite Mugi Shochu Genshu produced on the World Natural Heritage island of Yakushima. It is made using 100% Kagoshima-grown two-row barley, the soft water of Yakushima, and traditional handmade kame (jar) preparation. It is characterized by a rich, sweet, and roasted aroma reminiscent of “Mugi Choco” (chocolate-covered barley puffs) and a mellow, honey-like flavor. The package design is a work by Ms. Yuko Takada, an artist living on Yakushima.
