Harikuyamaku Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Oshima, Koto-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Kota Tokumine) will hold the [Shochu Festival in Kin no Hariku] starting April 24th (Friday) at Kin no Hariku, an adult Okinawan shabu-shabu restaurant that captivates with its ingredients and dashi.
At Kin no Hariku, we cherish the encounter with a unique drink that can only be savored during a specific season. Japanese sake and shochu are not just "alcoholic beverages"; they are works imbued with the season, the brewer's passion, and the individuality of each year. However, in recent years, due to the homogenization of distribution and information, we felt that flavors that could originally only be encountered in specific regions or seasons were becoming casually chosen. That is why, at Kin no Hariku, with the desire to deliver the charm of sake that can only be encountered at this very moment to more people, the owner actively stocks carefully selected seasonal Japanese sake and limited-edition shochu.
## Owner's Recommended 3 Types of Shochu
- Kaijuzu Passion 690 yen (excluding tax)
- Kaijuzu Passion: Kokubu Shuzo, Kagoshima Prefecture
- A sweet potato shochu newly released by Kokubu Shuzo in Kagoshima Prefecture in January this year. It has an aroma and sweetness reminiscent of Shine Muscat grapes and strawberry jam, and when tasted, a light and refreshing fruity sensation spreads in a well-balanced manner. Recommended ways to drink are on the rocks or with soda.
- Flamingo Orange 690 yen (excluding tax)
- Flamingo Orange: Kokubu Shuzo, Kagoshima Prefecture
- The very popular "Flamingo Orange" is released only in March each year. It has a soft mouthfeel and a very mild alcohol kick. The moment it is poured into a glass, a gentle floral aroma rises, along with a fresh fruitiness reminiscent of citrus. When tasted, a fruity sweetness spreads, and then a refreshing bitterness tightens the aftertaste. Enjoy its light, elegant, yet profound flavor.
- GLOW EP9 690 yen (excluding tax)
- GLOW EP9: Wakashio Shuzo, Kagoshima Prefecture
- The 9th installment in the GLOW number series, which has won the gold prize at the "Shochu Grand Prix selected by liquor stores" for three consecutive years. The theme of EP9, released in March this year, is "Ray of hope." It is a sweet potato shochu characterized by a gorgeous and fruity aroma like Muscat grapes, lychee, and pear, and a refreshing sweetness and umami.
Whether you come to drink your favorite glass or to discover a new one, Kin no Hariku will continue to deliver new discoveries and enjoyment with every visit, not just by serving alcohol, but as a place that connects people, sake, and the seasons. Please come and experience a drink that can only be encountered now.
