A sensory surprise for imo shochu, with notes of grapes and a bouquet of fruity aromas. The longer maturation process brings the grape flavor forward and mutes the sulfates, reducing the divisive funkiness that usually comes with a sweet potato base. For first timers, mix it with water at a 1:1 ratio, refrigerate, and serve it as a white wine substitute paired with cheese and tomatoes or seafood. This is the imo shochu for people who think they don’t like imo shochu!
