Reviews
Pure sweet-potato aroma—sweet and comforting like freshly steamed potatoes. The palate is soft and mellow, expanding with rustic umami. True to its name, “Akarui Nouson” (“Bright Countryside”) has a warm, familiar character. A must-have for fans of imo shochu.

A solid base of grain aroma supports notes of anise, white pepper, and mint. The tight, slightly bitter flavor finishes with a touch of sharp spiciness, creating a punchy, dynamic shochu that enhances any meal.
