Kuma Shochu (Yamae Village)

A single sip reveals the rich sweetness of rice. A simple, never-tiring flavor spreads, born from the clear waters of the mountain village. Yamae Village is a small village in the Kuma region known as the 'Chestnut Village.' The temperature fluctuations characteristic of the basin produce sweet and fragrant 'Yamae Chestnuts.' In 1977, they were presented to Emperor Showa, bringing national recognition to their name. Kuma Shochu is also produced in this area, including a chestnut-flavored shochu made with chestnuts. Kuma Shochu is an authentic shochu with approximately 500 years of history, made using only rice as the raw material and brewed, distilled, and bottled using the groundwater of the Hitoyoshi-Kuma region. A village in autumn where chestnuts and shochu meet. Please enjoy the sweetness of the chestnuts along with a glass of shochu.
