JAL Removes ‘Moriizo’ Shochu from Domestic First Class Drink Menu

It has been revealed that from April 1, the domestic First Class of Japan Airlines (JAL), which has been renewed, no longer offers the shochu “Moriizo” on its drink menu.

For many years, JAL’s domestic First Class had served the shochu “Moriizo,” introducing it as a “phantom shochu” (a hard-to-obtain, premium shochu). From April, the shochu served will be “Tsuru Sora PREMIUM,” sold by JAL Agriport. Other drink items are also being changed, including the introduction of the champagne “Joseph Perrier Cuvée Royale Brut” in mini bottles.

In-flight meals have been changed to a bento-style service on relatively short routes such as Tokyo/Haneda – Osaka/Itami and Hiroshima. In addition, whereas until March the lunch and dinner menus were different, they have now been unified into a single menu. The cycle for menu changes has also been revised.
