Kuro-Moji Shochu Hikimi Usho Morinoka

A rare and distinctive Japanese shochu, crafted using aromatic kuro-moji (spicebush) harvested from the forests of Hikimi. This unique botanical gives the spirit its elegant, forest-like character and refined depth.

Clear in appearance, it offers fresh, lifted aromas of citrus peel, herbs, and soft woodland spice. The palate is smooth and delicate, with gentle sweetness, subtle herbal notes, and a clean, refreshing finish that highlights its natural ingredients.

Best enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or lightly diluted with water to fully appreciate its aromas. A thoughtful match for Japanese cuisine, grilled seafood, or enjoyed on its own as a contemplative sip.
