Overview

FUYU means "WINTER" in Japanese.This handcrafted Sochu is a single grain produced from 100% barley on theisland of Honshu.The main difference with a single malt whisky is that the barley is not malted.Indeed, for Sochu, the Japanese use a microscopic fungus, the Koji, to seedthe starter mash and thus transform complex sugars into simple sugars whichmakes it possible to do without malting.First, there is fermentation of Barley with 100% of Barley koji.Then, a double distillation in a single Pot to obtain alcohol from 65% - 66% byVol. Finally, there is the filtration before aging for more than 3 years, in 450L -470L new American white oak barrels.At the end, the dilution is done to obtain ALC 43% by Vol followed by a secondfiltration.
