Nankai Shochu all started with a love story. Co-fo Nankai Shochu all started with a love story. Co-founders Paul and Mai discovered vacuum-distilled Nankai on their honeymoon to her hometown of Amami Island. They fell in love with how it smelled and tasted and how they felt after. Nankai is a kokuto shochu, a style of Japanese spirit with a 500 year-old tradition, single-distilled from artisanal kokuto sugar and rice. Kokuto sugar is unrefined and pure— full of flavor and nutrients lost to regular sugar. So the resulting shochu is full of elegant flavor but has no sugar, carbs or gluten. It also happens to be only 39 calories/oz — 30% less than vodka or tequila. Nankai Shochu is vacuum-distilled to be clean, refreshing and fragrant. Enjoy on the rocks, as a highball, or in one of our many cocktail recipes. #nankaishochu #nankai #shochu #kokutoshochu #amami #japanesespirit #vacuumdistillation #japanesedrink #ketofriendly #nosugar #glutenfree #nocarbs #lowcalorie #drinkwell #drinks #drinkhonorably #焼酎 #黒糖焼酎 #奄美大島
I went on a sales pitch to @wildhawk_sf and met @s I went on a sales pitch to @wildhawk_sf and met @suzuvroom and tried his incredible cocktails. This was after he had filmed Drink Masters for @netflix but before he was announced to be a part of the cast. He was warm, gracious, and just plain lovely— even to someone like me who was annoyingly pitching a product. People like Christian are what make this industry such a great place to work. Congrats on all your deserved success! #drinkmasters #bartender #sfbars #japanesebartender #shochu #nankaishochu #nankaiwhiteoak #nankaigold #netflix #mixologist
Happy World Shochu Day from all of us here at Nank Happy World Shochu Day from all of us here at Nankai Shochu! Nankai means “south seas,” where kokuto shochu is a beloved spirit. Just ask Nankai super fans King Triton and Sebastian. Some basic facts about Shochu for World Shochu Day: 1. Shochu is single-distilled from all-natural ingredients. 2. Kokuto Shochu is naturally free of sugar, carbs and gluten. 3. With most Shochu ranging from 20-25% ABV%, it’s meant to be paired with food and is lower in calories per serving than other alcohol. 4. Nankai Shochu is distilled from artisanal kokuto sugar, which requires 100kg of sugarcane to make only 10kg’s worth. #worldshochuday #shochuday #nankai #nankaishochu #nankaigold #nankaiwhiteoak #kokutoshochu #amami #vacuumdistillation #distilledspirits #craftspirits #japanesedrink ＃焼酎 #黒糖焼酎 #奄美大島 #焼酎好き #本格焼酎 #honkakushochu
Nankai Shochu mixes well with pretty much everythi Nankai Shochu mixes well with pretty much everything, but there are some clear standouts, like this Ube Horchata cocktail from the uber talented Irwin, beverage director of @thechickenkoop in Alhambra, CA. Irwin combines homemade black rice horchata with ube condensed milk, and it works incredibly well with our kokuto shochu. Nankai co-founders Paul and Mai can’t get enough of this one. UBE HORCHATA-HAI 1.5 oz Nankai Shochu 3 oz Horchata 0.5 oz Ube Condensed Milk Combine and shake with ice. Strain into a glass over ice and enjoy. Multiply everything by 3 if you want to save time and just make your next rounds now. Seriously. Clear ice courtesy of @kuramoto_ice. Drink honorably. #nankai #nankaishochu #nankaicocktails #shochucocktail #cocktailrecipes #cocktails #cocktailrecipe #shochu #kokutoshochu #ube #horchata #cocktailporn #purpledrinks #drinks #drinkstagram #cocktailoftheday #japanesemexicanfusion #homebar #cocktailsathome #easycocktails #焼酎 #黒糖焼酎 #奄美大島 #カクテル
It’s our 5-year Anniversary! Thank you all so m It’s our 5-year Anniversary! Thank you all so much for your support and love. We’re incredibly grateful. It’s hard to believe this labor of love has just passed the 5-year mark. But it all started with and continues for our passion for shochu and its future in the U.S. Please stick with us as we continue our journey! Below are some captions for the photos: 1) Our first official product photo, though our hardcore fans will remember we launched with copper caps. 2) An event in Hawaii with @jenackrill was how we first began working with @sgwinespirits — notice the copper caps on these first bottles?! 3) Co-founder Mai on our very first tour of the distillery in 2015, way before we even knew we would start Nankai. 4) A jump photo right after the distillery tour. Were we happy? Buzzed? Both were probably true. #nankai #nankaishochu #nankaigold #nankaiwhiteoak #shochu #kokutoshochu #amamioshima #startup #startuplife #japanesedrink #anniversary #5yearanniversary #thankyou #bestdrinks #焼酎 #黒糖焼酎 #奄美大島
