Towari Soba Shochu - 700ml
The Towari is Soba Shochu made with Soba Koji instead of the commonly used rice or barley Koji, the Towari is a Honkaku Shochu made of 100% buckwheat (Soba). Making Soba Koji is very difficult because of the very hard surface of the buckwheat core. For example, most shochu breweries use rice or barley for the koji and primary moromi (seizure of the main fermentation). A 100% Soba Shochu, the Towari.
This Shochu also combines two distillation methods - Potdemstillation and Vacuus Dillation which results in an authentic shochu with nutty flavors of roasted Soba and a butter soft palate.
The aroma is reminiscent of a wide range of savory dishes: fresh and grilled vegetables, including spring onion, broccoli rhubarb and radish, along with buckwheat, sesame seeds and black olives. The palette is soft, not too dominant and very complex.
Serve suggestions:
Room temperature or hot.
