The finish is clean cut, despite the richness. The handmade, pale golden bottle is made to look like a trophy to honor the victory of life aka “Dreams come true”!

MUGEN SHIRANAMI IMO SHOCHU
The infinite possibilities of authentic shochu. In order to bring out maximum sweetness of sweet potatoes, they undergo“tsuchimuro toka imo’’, a process in which the sweet potatoes are slowly aged in the soil to increase the sugar levels, and then a unique distillation technique is used. Due to the course filtration method, more umami filled ingredients are left than in typical shochu, resulting in a slightly cloudy liquor with a deep and rich flavor. Recommended to serve as oyuwari (with hot water).
