Event Offering Great Opportunity to Enjoy Pairing of Japan's Traditional Distilled Spirit "Shochu" and Highest-Quality "Miyazaki Wagyu" Beef to Be Held in New York on February 21

Kirishima Shuzo, Japan's top shochu distiller, pairs its shochu with Miyazaki Wagyu beef for 500 guests in two tasting sessions to boost U.S. market recognition.

  • Kirishima Shuzo will host 'MIYAZAKI WAGYU x Japan's Top 'Shochu' Experience' at LAVAN MIDTOWN in New York, with two sessions from 12:00–14:00 and 18:00–20:00, aiming to introduce shochu to the U.S. market.
  • With shochu's domestic popularity but limited global profile, Kirishima Shuzo wishes the event to prompt global recognition of shochu through food pairings amid rising exports of Japan-made alcoholic beverages.
  • Two shochu expressions—Kuro Kirishima and KIRISHIMA No.8—will be served mixed with carbonated water while Chef Hiroki Abe prepares Miyazaki Wagyu shabu-shabu, yakitori, and karaage.
  • Pre-Registered guests will receive a set of 3 drinks and food for $21, with 250 guests per session limited via the ticketing website.
  • Japan's koji-based fermentation traditions, recognized by UNESCO for sake-making, inform Kirishima Shuzo's shochu, ranked top in sales for 13 consecutive years with leading industry awards.
