A captivating and flavoursome shochu that is not to be missed! Gekkeikan’s Bizan (meaning ‘Beautiful Mountain’) Sweet Potato Shochu is made by carefully fermenting steamed sweet potatoes with rice koji (the culture used to make Japanese alcohols) and slowly distilling and ageing it over low temperatures. This results in a fruity but dry, lightish bouquet with spicy and umami flavours. A must-try for shochu lovers. Type: Sweet Potato-based Shochu Flavour: Light, Fruity, Dry, Spicy, Umami How to Drink: Straight, on the rocks, with cold water, with hot water Food pairing: Try this shochu with strong flavoured foods such as rich stir frys and foods with miso marinates.
