Nakamura Shuzoujo’s inaugural white koji shochu, beloved by locals for many years, features a clean, smooth finish, with a subtly sweet yet rich and layered flavor. It pairs especially well with hot water (oyuwari). The name Gyokuro is inspired by the high-grade Japanese tea of the same name, reflecting the distillery’s aspiration for this shochu to stand among the very best in the industry.
