Hyakunen no Kodoku (Solitude of a Hundred Years)
As you tilt the glass, a complex aroma emerges, featuring the toastiness of oak with a subtle hint of cigar. Upon the first sip, concentrated umami and mellow richness layer together, sliding slowly down the throat. This is a premium mugi shochu produced by Kuroki Honten, located in Takanabe, Koyu District, Miyazaki Prefecture, founded in 1885. The process of skillfully blending aged spirits from three, four, and five years matured in white oak barrels is much like whisky making itself. The toastiness of the barley and the barrels intertwine in multiple layers. Beneath its 40% strength lies a profound smoothness. It is a bottle perfectly suited to be enjoyed slowly on the rocks, as an accompaniment to a special night.
