Shochu FAQ

What does "Honkaku Shochu" mean? +

"Honkaku" translates to authentic or genuine. It designates shochu that has been traditionally single-distilled in a pot still rather than continuously distilled, preserving the rich flavor profiles of its raw ingredients.

How is barley shochu different from sake? +

While sake is a brewed fermented beverage similar to beer or wine, shochu is a distilled spirit. Barley shochu (mugi) tends to be lighter, drier, and more aromatic than rice or sweet potato shochu.
