Product Description

Iichiko Seirin Barley Shochu
いいちこ 清凛 麦焼酎

Between the barley, low pressure distillation, white koji, and extra spring water, iichiko seirin may be the lightest, most easy drinking shochu on the U.S. market. Pleasant and refreshing on the rocks, but go light on the ice. The flavor will disappear into the water quickly if the ice melts. An even better way to drink seirin would be neat (straight) but chilled. Just let the flavors come out with a nice cool mouth feel. Perfect for summer.
