Smoke Shochu No.59

Honkaku Shochu with a Peaty, Smoky Finish

The unique technology "smoke-infusion" (patented) has been used to create "Smoke Shochu No.59", which is distilled and aged using sweet potato (average phenol value 0.59) smoked with peat and cherry chips. To enhance the smoky aroma, the alcohol content was increased, and it was finished with non-chill filtration to bring out the best flavor of the smoke. The smoky aroma and flavor derived from the smoked sweet potatoes pair exceptionally well with smoked ingredients, harmonizing with the flavors of the ingredients to create an enjoyable smoke shochu experience.
