iichiko Silhouette is a traditional Japanese Honkaku shochu, the most strictly regulated style of traditional shochu. Made from 100% barley, it is recognised as the best-selling barley shochu in Japan. It is distilled at the family-run Sanwa Shurui distillery on the southern Japanese island of Kyushu, the birthplace of this unique spirit and home to the 500-year distilling tradition.
