OKAYAMA RICE SHOCHU MENS MEDAL 岡山 米焼酎 男の勲章 1.8L

Distilled by Miyashita Shuzo (宮下酒造) in Okayama Prefecture, Men’s Medal (男の勲章) is a premium Kome Shochu (Rice Shochu) made from locally grown Okayama rice and pristine mountain spring water.

This shochu captures the confident strength of its name — “a man’s medal.” It opens with aromas of steamed rice, mild spice, and vanilla, leading to a rich, rounded palate with gentle sweetness, clean minerality, and a smooth, warming finish. Its balance of depth and drinkability makes it ideal both for casual sipping and for pairing with hearty izakaya dishes.
