Munemasa Mugi Shochu

Munemasa Mugi Shochu is a refined barley shochu crafted by Munemasa Shuzō in Saga Prefecture, Kyushu — a region renowned for clean, elegant shochu styles. Distilled at low temperature to preserve soft aromatics, it offers gentle notes of toasted barley, vanilla, light nuttiness and subtle sweetness, finishing clean, smooth and dry. Its simplicity and purity make it a beautifully approachable expression of mugi shochu.

Exceptionally versatile, Munemasa Mugi Shochu can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, mixed with cold or hot water (mizuwari / oyuwari), or served as a crisp highball. It pairs wonderfully with sushi, yakitori, grilled fish, noodles and lightly seasoned Japanese dishes. For those discovering shochu or seeking a delicate, grain-forward spirit, Munemasa Mugi Shochu is an excellent choice.
