Show Notes

Liam McNulty, the man behind nomunication.jp and a standing member of the Tokyo Whisky and Spirits Competition (TWSC) managing committee, joins Frank to talk all things shochu. Our discussion covers how shochu is defined, how shochu is judged at TWSC, and what the future looks like for this remarkable spirit. We also touch on koji-based whiskies, shochu-based gins, and the blending of ideas from both the spirits and shochu world.

We’d love to hear what you thought about the episode! Let us know at [email protected] or send us a message on our InstagramFacebook, or Substack!

We’ll be back very soon with plenty more Sake On Air.

Until then, kampai!
