Sunny Cream 720ml/1800ml
[Sunny Cream]
Sweet potato shochu with a sweet banana scent!
Sunny Cream is an innovative potato shochu created by Kokubu Shuzo's brewer Yasuda.
Yasuda Toji is in charge of ``Kojizo'', which uses yellow koji and distills under reduced pressure with a high proportion of rice, and the industry's first 100% sweet potato shochu, kojiimo.
His other shochu, ``Flamingo Orange,'' is also very popular, but Sunny Cream is a further development of that idea.
When preparing another product, "Cool Mint Green," I felt a strong banana and melon-like aroma from the moromi stage, and the aroma would have been stronger if I used the yellow kojizo brewing mixture, which has a higher proportion of rice. With this in mind, the preparation of this shochu began.
The aroma characteristics were clearly felt from the moromi stage, and the resulting shochu had an even higher value for the component isoamyl acetate, which can be compared to the aroma of bananas and melons, than "Cool Mint Green."
In order to bring out more characteristics, the alcohol content was released at a slightly higher 28%.
This is a new type of potato shochu with a very sweet aroma and banana-like flavor.
