Hyakunen no Kodoku Barrel Aged Barley Shochu (BTL 750ml)
Named after the famed novel One Hundred Years of Solitude, this is a statement shochu that is made in limited quantities. Yoko received this as a going away gift from her boss when she moved back to the U.S. from Japan.
Using 100% locally-grown organic barley, this shochu is aged in oak casks for 3-5 years to develop a rich complexity akin to whisky. Enjoy a spectrum of aromas, from coconut and ripe pineapple to caramel and even pipe tobacco. Try this neat or oyuwari style to uncover all the levels of flavor.
