Nishimira Shochu

Located in the innermost part of the Kyushu Mountains, Nishimira Village is a 'Karikobozo's holiday village' where mountains account for over ninety percent of the land. Miyazaki Prefecture has long boasted the highest shipment volume of authentic shochu in Japan, and even in this deep mountain paradise, shochu making has been practiced traditionally. Brewed with the clear streams of the Kyushu Mountains and locally grown sweet potatoes, this shochu has an unadorned, simple, and powerful flavor. True to a village where the legend of the forest sprite Karikobozo (resembling a kappa) still lives on, it is a cup that lets you feel the raw vitality of mountain nature. This is a shochu you want to savor slowly by the hearth with wild game or mountain delicacies as snacks. You can fully enjoy the tranquility of this remote village and the deep richness nurtured by the mountains.
