Shochu SHIN SAKURA NO SATO
Ref : NISSMA1
Founded in 1804, Matsushita Jozo Co. is some of Kuma Shochu's iconic brands’ ( Saikogura and Sakura no Sato) originator. Located in Mizukami village, near Kuma River source, one of the three fastest-flowing rivers in Japan, it has been making shochu for over 200 years and is the oldest distillery among Kuma Shochu guilds.
This shochu is vacuum distilled to produce light, subtle flavors.
As alcoholic beverages consumption, particularly shochu, takes place mainly during meals, vacuum distillation allows to obtain simpler flavors.
Distinctive feature of "Shin Sakura no Sato" shochu is its smooth, fresh aroma.
You'll appreciate the floral, fruity, ripe melon and cereal notes when diluted. Offering a lovely sweetness, this shochu has a refreshing aftertaste.
How to enjoy your shochu :
- Pure: savor the flavor slowly with a small amount of shochu in your mouth.
- On the rocks: place ice cubes in a glass and slowly pour shochu over them to enjoy full flavor. You can add lemon slices.
- Mizu-wari, i.e. cut with water and ice cubes: Put water (preferably fresh water) in a glass and pour shochu into it. Feel free to use whatever ratio of shochu to water you prefer.
- Oyu-wari, i.e. cut with hot water: prefer water at 50°C-60°C; it's essential to pour shochu into the cup first, then cover it with hot water to enjoy all flavors. You can do the same thing by replacing water with tea.
This shochu is also remarkable with sparkling water, or as a replacement for gin for a gin and tonic-style shochu.
This shochu goes perfectly with sushi, fish carpaccios, citrus and herb salads, grilled or steamed fish...
