Hakutake Komoriuta
Tasting Notes
Dynamic herbaceous aromas with notes of porcini mushrooms and yuzu peel. On the palate, the structure is graceful and delivers on the expected notes of citrus and umami. A lingering mineral finish begs the drinker for another sip.
Following the tradition of Kuma shochu, the distillery uses earthenware jars to age this shochu. Slow-aging this honkaku (authentic) shochu more than three years creates a mellow and smooth flavor with a deep sweetness derived from the rice. Komoriuta is delicious on the rocks or mixed with club soda or seltzer and works well as a cocktail base for a wide range of drinks as its alcohol content is 30%. This aged shochu is recommended for those who prefer a mellow flavor and for those who are trying shochu for the first time. It is well-received within and also outside of Asia as an easy-to-drink spirit.
The name Komoriuta means lullaby in Japanese. This product name and design was inspired by "Itsuki's Lullaby," which is passed down from generation to generation in the Hitoyoshi-Kuma region.
