Nankai Shochu
Nankai White Oak, our low ABV cask-finished shochu Nankai White Oak, our low ABV cask-finished shochu, is perfect for food pairing. We recently teamed up Chef @yoyaman of @kodo.la to create cocktails to pair with @hoktokinoko mushrooms. One of the best reactions came from this umami-rich, earthy and subtly sweet Shiitake Old Fashioned. SHIITAKE OLD FASHIONED 2 oz Nankai White Oak infused with shiitake mushrooms 0.25 oz Kokuto Sugar Syrup 1 dash Candy Cap Bitters PREP: - Infuse 1 bottle of Nankai White Oak with 2 dry shiitake and 2 fresh shiitake for 2 days. - Infuse 300ml of aromatic bitters with a handful of candy cap mushrooms for 2 weeks. - Simmer 1 cup of water with 1 cup of kokuto black sugar to create a syrup. Store in fridge to use within 2 weeks. COCKTAIL: -Combine infused Nankai White Oak, candy cap bitters and kokuto syrup in glass with ice. Stir to chill. Serve straight up or over large cube of ice. Special thanks to @eatyourdrink and @adamtchapman for advice and recipes working with mushrooms. #nankaishochu #nankaiwhiteoak #nankai #shochu #kokutoshochu #caskfinish #caskaged #barrelaged #oldfashioned #oldfashionedcocktail #shiitake #mushrooms #cocktail #cocktailrecipe #shochucocktail #cocktailtime #cocktailsofinstagram #japanesecocktail #umami #lowabv #funky #mushroomlovers #焼酎 #黒糖焼酎 #黒糖 #奄美大島 #カクテル #キノコ
At the Matsuri event at @tanakafarms we were gifte At the Matsuri event at @tanakafarms we were gifted with beautiful Hannah’s Choice Cantaloupe melons. Richly sweet and bursting with a summery aroma, we used them for cocktails at the festival. They were such a hit (despite some operational issues we had) that we’re sharing a similar but simple recipe for you all. MELO MELO PUNCH 1.5 oz Nankai Shochu 1.5 oz Melon Juice 0.5 oz Simple Syrup 0.5 oz Lemon Juice Cut melons into chunks and blend to extract juice. Strain and add juice to shaker, along with Nankai, syrup and lemon. Add ice and shake to chill. Strain into a coupe glass and garnish with a slice of melon. Enjoy with prosciutto and cheese and be totally happy. #nankaishochu #shochu #cantaloupe #melon #cocktails #cocktailrecipes #cocktailrecipe #shochucocktail #cocktailsofinstagram #cocktailporn #drinks #drinkstagram #vinepair #imbibe #japanesedrink #焼酎 #黒糖焼酎 #カクテル #奄美大島 #kokutoshochu #meloncocktail #tanakafarms #summercocktails #fallcocktails

Nankai White Oak is our latest release, a fine cas Nankai White Oak is our latest release, a fine cask-finished Japanese spirit known as shochu and representing both ancient and modern techniques. Fermented from kokuto sugar and rice and then single-distilled, it is then finished in both American White Oak and French Limousin casks for incredible smoothness, aroma, and flavor. Winner of the 2022 Double Gold medal from the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and a 2022 Gold Medal from the Asian Spirits Masters. Batch 001 is out now in limited quantities in CA, and if your favorite retailer doesn’t have a case yet, ask them to pick one up from @sgwsproof today. #nankaishochu #nankaiwhiteoak #shochu #kokutoshochu #japanesedrink #japanesespirits #distilledspirits #caskfinish #barrelaged #shochulover #whiskylover #lowabv #neat #ontherocks #ketofriendly #焼酎 #黒糖焼酎 #奄美大島 #shōchū
A Beer and a Shot, also known as a Boilermaker, co A Beer and a Shot, also known as a Boilermaker, continues to be a popular way for kicking off an evening. The trick is to pair the right spirit and beer. While we have lots of favorite pairings, our heartstrings are currently being plucked by @bairdbrewing ‘s Fruitful Life IPA followed by Nankai White Oak. The perfect balance of light fruit and bitter hops is followed by a gush of juicy fruit. It’s the perfect summer combination and can be enjoyed at @harajukutaproomla in Culver City, CA. #nankaishochu #nankaiwhiteoak #shochu #kokutoshochu #beershots #beerandashot #boilermaker #shōchū #shochupairing #beerpairing #shotandabeer #ipa #beer #beerstagram #drinks #drinkstagram #drinksofinstagram #japanesebeer #japanesedrink #焼酎 #黒糖焼酎 #奄美大島 #ビール #craftbeer #クラフトビール
