Nankai Gold Fashioned

Our take on the classic Old Fashioned. We've replaced whiskey with our award-winning Nankai Gold Shochu which has been barrel-aged in a variety of casks for balance and depth. Many have told us the Nankai Gold Fashioned is their favorite Old Fashioned so we'd love to hear if you agree.
