For distilled spirits, time is the finest companion, bringing mature transformations beyond even the maker's imagination. Whiskey, also made from grain, is routinely barrel-aged; the brewers wanted drinkers to experience a similar vintage pleasure in barley shochu, inspiring Taimei Koko Kara. Only the year's finest ingredients are used, with preparation taking twice the usual time before the atmospheric-distillation spirit is bottled. Rest softens the alcohol's edges and makes the palate increasingly mellow. Age it for three years or more to enjoy it as koshu. Store at room temperature away from direct sunlight. It is shipped in an uncoated-paper box that develops character with age and is also recommended as a gift.
