Densho Satsuma Ohara Nigori 900ml Bottle | Imo Shochu Honbo Shuzo Kagoshima Prefecture
Winter-Only Unfiltered Sake, Recreating Showa-Era Imo Shochu
Honbo Shuzo's "Densho Satsuma Ohara Nigori" recreates the "imo-kusai" (smells like sweet potato) taste of traditional imo shochu that was once popular in Kagoshima. By minimally processing the raw sake after distillation and intentionally leaving in the umami components (fusel oil) that are usually removed, it creates a unique, slightly cloudy sake.
Rich and Robust Traditional Imo Shochu
Made with sweet potatoes from Kagoshima Prefecture and domestic rice koji, this sake captures the rustic and powerful flavor of sweet potato. It is recommended for those who seek a rich and distinctive taste, in contrast to the lighter imo shochu that is popular in recent years. This is a limited release available only during the winter season each year.
Recommended Way to Drink
When mixed with hot water, the sweet potato flavor is even more enhanced. It also pairs well with strongly flavored dishes such as tonkotsu (pork bone stew) and nishime (simmered vegetables and meat).
