At 70 proof (35% alc/vol) Mizu Shochu¬†ÁæéÈ¥‰ÉËàû¬†is more concentrated like shochus of old to enhance the subtle complexities, body and finish. While more mainstream shochus of today are diluted down to 50 proof, master distillers Hirofumi Okoba and ¬†Shinji Wada maintain the tradition of a higher alcohol shochu in appreciation of the past, and the purity of our locally sourced ingredients.

Mizu Shochu¬†ÁæéÈ¥‰ÉËàû¬†is handcrafted and single distilled in the traditional Japanese way, and follows the¬†honkaku¬†Êú¨Ê†ºÁѺÈÖ鬆style of production, meaning ‚Äògenuine, authentic’ shochu. Limiting the distillation to a single pass preserves the naturally occurring flavors and aromas. With each additional pass – most common spirits are distilled at least two times – the more neutral and flavorless the spirit becomes. It is the time-honored Japanese practice to distill the¬†moromi¬†‚Äòmash’ only one time in order to capture and highlight the true essence of the raw ingredients. The result is a more natural taste that is complex, earthy and exquisite. It is a celebration and a tribute to the purity of nature and the flavors of the harvest.
