Mujen Shochu X

Mujen Shochu X is an ultra-premium Japanese craft shochu distilled from 100% Japanese rice and pure spring water. Produced using traditional koji fermentation and single distillation (Honkaku), it is aged for over ten years in French oak casks. This extended maturation imparts a rich, complex profile akin to fine cognac or whisky, featuring layers of deep vanilla, toasted oak, dried fruit, and a silky, elegant finish.

Food Pairing: Wagyu beef, Peking duck, seared foie gras, rich braised pork belly (Kakuni), dark chocolate, and aged hard cheeses.

Tasting Notes : Deep amber-gold in appearance, offering a velvety, rich, and remarkably smooth full-bodied mouthfeel.

Nose : Rich toasted oak, sweet vanilla bean, dried figs, subtle cinnamon, dark caramel, and fragrant steamed rice.

Palate : Complex and elegant with layers of sweet oak, vanilla, dried fruits, light dark chocolate, and subtle warm spices.

Finish : Long, warm, and sophisticated with lingering oak, sweet fruit, and a smooth, dry finish.

Serve : Best enjoyed neat or over a single large ice cube in a Glencairn or rocks glass to fully appreciate its barrel-aged complexity.
