Rihei Ginger Shochu
OVERVIEW

Rihei Ginger is a single-distilled, one-of-a-kind shochu made from ginger local to Japan’s Miyazaki prefecture. This 4th generation, family-run distillery honors the traditions of their 100-year-old past while continuing to evolve as an award-winning shochu producer in the 21st century. While most shochu is made from sweet potatoes, barley or rice, they focus on crafting high quality, small production shochu made from locally grown produce like ginger, pumpkin, bell pepper, and yomogi leaves. With 38% alcohol genshu, this Japanese craft spirit contains 20% ginger, 30% rice, and 50% barley.

Tasting Notes

Refreshing ginger notes on the palate with a tinge of spice and citrus that comes from the koji rice and barley.

Cocktail Suggestions

Any craft spirit enthusiast will enjoy sipping on Rihei Ginger, and it is also excellent in a wide range of classic and modern cocktails.
