Created on Iki Island in the Nagasaki Prefecture, this Shochu combines sweetness of rice koji with a rich barley flavour. This comes from the use of a production method unique to Iki that utilises one-part Koji rice with two-parts barley. Distilled using the Honkaku Shochu single distillation method, Mugi Shochu Iki is a mellow tasting Shochu that is characterised by its wheat flavour and natural sweetness evoking pear and cinnamon. Employing traditional methods in their production that have been used for over 500 years, Iki Shochu has been recognised by the World Trade Organisation with an authentic origin certification, which means only Shochu made in Iki Island can be referred to as “Iki Shochu”. Iki Shochu is one of the few liquor products in the world to receive this accolade.
