World-class bartenders Shingo Gokan and Joshin Atone were invited to the venue to appeal honkaku shochu and awamori to overseas buyers who were unable to attend due to the corona virus.
Report on Honkaku Shochu and Awamori at FOODEX JAPAN 2021 by Shingo Gokan and Joshin Atone
Gokan commented: "There are different types of honkaku shochu made using various natural ingredients. Since you can sense the unique aroma derived from each ingredient, by all means, please come to Japan to enjoy honkaku shochu, the national liquor of Japan, together with us."
Atone commented: "Because honkaku shochu is distilled once, it can be used to create a wide range of flavors and aromas from the ingredients. When making cocktails, the flavors of the ingredients can be matched to create a sense of unity, so it can be used in a wider range of cocktails."
They both agreed that a cocktail made with honkaku shochu would be familiar to people all over the world.
