This spring, beloved Japanese spirit, iichiko Shochu, is debuting a limited edition expression, the HANA Label, inspired by the sacred Sakura season.
Intended to honor the rich history of iichiko’s Japanese heritage, and is composed of iichiko’s Silhouette expression, the more traditional of the brand’s two products.
Complementing the impeccably designed bottle, iichiko’s very own Natasha Velez has created blossom-inspired cocktail, the Blossom Sour.
