Sanwa Iichiko Silhouette Shochu is a premium Japanese shochu, distilled from carefully selected barley (mugi) and pure spring water. This speciality from Oita Prefecture on Kyushu – a region renowned for its excellent shochu tradition – impresses with a smooth, harmonious texture and a clean flavour profile. Thanks to the traditional vacuum distillation process, Sanwa Iichiko Silhouette Shochu remains particularly pure and mild, whilst its delicate cereal and umami notes are perfectly balanced.

With an alcohol content of 25% vol., this shochu belongs to the classic mugi shochu varieties, characterised by their gentle, slightly nutty aroma. The modern and minimalist bottle design emphasises the quality and elegance of this spirit, which can be enjoyed both neat and mixed. Sanwa Iichiko Silhouette is a real hidden gem for lovers of Japanese spirits who are looking for a mild yet characterful alternative to sake or whisky.
