iichiko Shinwa (700ml, 43%)
iichiko Shinwa is a premium honkaku shochu made from 100% barley, created by Sanwa Shurui in Oita Prefecture in collaboration with leading Japanese bartenders. The name “Shinwa”, meaning “harmonious heart,” reflects both its balanced character and the collaborative spirit behind its creation.
Crafted using two-row barley, barley malt, and pure spring water from the mountains of Oita, Shinwa embodies the essence of Japan’s finest barley terroir. Distilled only once, in the honkaku (authentic) style, it preserves the natural flavor and aroma of its raw ingredients while achieving a smooth, refined texture.
Flavor Profile:
Shinwa presents a complex and layered palate, with bright notes of pineapple, lychee, and melon, intertwined with hints of oat, coconut, and white pepper. The result is an elegant balance of fruitiness and grain character, offering depth without heaviness.
Developed with bartenders in mind, iichiko Shinwa is delightful neat or on the rocks, beautifully expressive when diluted with cold water, and a refined base for contemporary cocktails.
