Jagatara Oharu (Fukuda Shuzo)

This is a rare potato shochu with a name that tells the history of Hirado. Produced by Fukuda Shuzo, founded in 1688. 'Jagatara' is derived from the word for potato, originating from potatoes brought by Dutch ships from 'Jatara' (modern-day Jakarta) in the south. 'Oharu' refers to a woman who, during the period of national isolation, was exiled to Jakarta and left behind the 'Jatara Bun' (Jakarta Letter), expressing her longing for her homeland. The name was chosen to evoke this poignant story. It is a bottle you want to savor while reflecting on this tale. Produced with potatoes from Nagasaki Prefecture, it offers a clean and refreshing taste. A flavorful spirit infused with the history of Hirado, the westernmost point of Japan.
