Kushima Imo Shochu
Kushima City, home to the wild horses of Toi Cape, is a producer of sweet potatoes that soak up plenty of southern sunlight. Miyazaki Prefecture has long been Japan's leading shochu kingdom in terms of shipments, and Kushima's imo shochu, blessed with a warm climate, plays its part in that legacy. Brewers in Kushima use locally grown sweet potatoes and pure water to brew the spirit as if capturing the potato's sweetness itself. Potatoes grown freely under the pouring sun accumulate plenty of sugar, resulting in a full-bodied and mellow shochu. A glass enjoyed while gazing at the magnificent sunset of Toi Cape is an extraordinary moment. The gentle sweetness of the potato permeates the body along with the lingering essence of the southern tropics.
