"BANKYO 18 years"
"BANKYO 18 Year Old" is a sweet potato shochu that has been aged for 18 years by aging it in barrels and listening to classical music. By listening to classical music in various environments such as barrels and tanks over the long 18-year aging period, a bottle of high-quality flavor has been born, with tens of millions of overlapping aromas and flavors.

The taste of "BANKYO 18 Year Old"

The finish is soft and elegant, with a lingering sweet vanilla scent. You can enjoy an exceptional drink in which a wide variety of aromas and flavors intertwine, almost like beautiful music.
