Kuma Shochu (Distillery in Mizukami Village)
As you tilt your glass, a full-bodied aroma of rice emerges. The clear brewing water creates a crisp mouthfeel and a gentle lingering finish. Mizukami Village is a remote mountain hamlet blessed with the pure waters of the Ichifusa Mountain Range, situated at the headwaters of the Kuma River. The Kuma Shochu brewed here is an authentic shochu that can only use rice as its sole ingredient and must be brewed, distilled, and bottled using the groundwater of the Hitoyoshi-Kuma region. With a history spanning approximately 500 years, it is counted among Japan's few brands whose geographical indication has been recognized by the World Trade Organization. A deeply flavorful cup nurtured by mountains and water. It is a local shochu you will want to savor slowly while imagining the nature of the Ichifusa Mountains.
