Shochu is a Japanese distilled spirit made typically from barley, sweet potato, or kokuto sugar.
Most spirits are distilled at least twice, losing flavor with each pass. But, shochu is single-distilled, preserving the natural flavors and aromas of the ingredients.
In Japan, shochu outsells sake by double. This is for many reasons including having no sugar or carbs. It also has fewer calories per serving size than sake, wine, beer or vodka.
