Sakurajima

The Classic, Elegant Sakurajima Imo Shochu

Honkaku shochu "Sakurajima" is a Satsuma shochu with a soft, melted umami and a refined sweet potato aroma that blends softly into a beautiful sake quality. It has a mellow taste, yet a deep flavor that gently spreads throughout with a long finish. Enjoy the fragrant and rich deliciousness that spreads smoothly in your mouth like cherry blossom petals flowing on the surface of a river.
