Questions about this bottle
How should I drink Mizu Sakura Cask Shochu?
On the rocks or with water (oyuwari style, mixed with hot water) — shochu is traditionally diluted rather than taken straight, unlike whiskey.
What is Mizu Sakura Cask Shochu made from?
Rice, barley, and koji, finished in sakura (cherry) wood casks, which gives it a lighter, more floral edge than an oak-aged whiskey.
Is shochu the same as sake?
No — sake is a brewed rice wine, while shochu is distilled, giving it a higher ABV and a spirit-like character closer to vodka or light whiskey.
