"The Engine of our Hometown" - Thinking Globally, Acting Locally -

Our barley shochu - Tsunezo Breeze (photo: 900ml) is created using 100% Toyonohoshi, a new barley cultivar being cultivated right here in Oita Prefecture, that is great for producing fantastic shochu. Adopting a ginjozukuri style (a strict method used to create high-quality shochu) we ferment the shochu at a low temperature. Along with the other ingredients, special koji and yeast, this gives the shochu a beautiful aroma and citrussy taste. We chose a rather novel logo for its label from a San Diego based rock band that we think matches the drink. We recommend serving with soda and a couple of slices of kabosu.
