This is a limited release from Iichiko, made especially for bartenders, Saiten is a 100% Barley soju at 43 ABV (86 Proof) that works amazingly well in cocktails. The nose is full of honeydew, white grapes, citrus, a hint of soy, white pepper and barley notes. On the palate, iichiko Saiten offers a rich umami and a long saline finish. We tried this on its own and also mixed with some club soda where it transformed into a delicious cocktail, very close in tune to an Aperol spritz. Lots of fun to play around with and easy to drink.
