Fuyu means "winter" in Japanese. This handcrafted Shochu is a single grain produced from 100% barley on the island of Honshu. The main difference with a single malt whisky is that the barley is not malted. Indeed, for the Sochu, the Japanese use a microscopic fungus, the Koji, to seed the wort and thus transform the complex sugars into simple sugars what makes it possible to do without malting. Then a double distillation takes place to obtain an alcohol between 65° and 66°. The distillate is filtered before being aged for a minimum of 3 years in new American white oak barrels with a capacity of 450L to 470L. Finally, the spirit is reduced to 43° and filtered a second time before bottling.
