Naoshima Kome Shochu - 720ml
Description
Naoshima shochu, brewed by Honda Shoten in the Hyogo prefecture, undergoes a unique aging process. This authentic shochu is initially aged in the brewery and then transported to the Ikuno Ginzan Silver Mine. There, it undergoes year-round aging at a constant temperature of 13 °C.
The composition of Naoshima shochu consists of 50% polished Yamada Nishiki rice and sake lees from quality Daiginjo sake. The result is a shochu with a luxurious, soft aroma reminiscent of fresh Daiginjo sake, and a clean finish that accompanies a deep and rich flavor.
Notably, the pure gold leaf comes from recycled electronic scrap from Mitsubishi Material, collected in the Netherlands and then transported to Japan. In the Naoshima refinery, this gold is further melted, adding a distinctive and sustainable dimension to the production process of Naoshima shochu.
