Kijo Shochu

Located north of Aya, which is famous for one of Japan's leading evergreen forests, Kijo Town is a mountain town nurtured by the clear streams of the Komarugawa River. Miyazaki Prefecture has long boasted the highest shipment volume of authentic shochu in Japan, and in Kijo, simple and flavorful shochu has been enjoyed as part of daily life. Brewed with local water and ingredients, this shochu's hallmark is an unpretentious, unadorned taste. Like a true mountain village, the 'Yuzu-wari' method—adding the aroma of squeezed yuzu—is a warm tradition unique to this town that continues to be passed down. A cup wrapped in the refreshing scent of citrus beautifully colors your evening drink. It is a relaxing local shochu that makes you feel the quiet nature of Kijo.
