沖縄県·泡盛
Chiyoizumi Shuzo
Chiyoizumi Shuzo is a small brewery founded in 1948 in Karimata, Miyako Island. Using water springing from raised coral reef layers, they continued to brew 'Chiyoizumi' through traditional handmade methods. It is an awamori with a simple, easy-to-drink taste—featuring soft sweetness and richness—that has been long cherished by the local community. However, due to the lack of a successor, the brewery sadly closed down in 2018. This was the first instance of a brewery within the prefecture closing its doors following Okinawa's reversion to Japan. Today, it has become a bottle that is hard to encounter in the market. The aged spirits remaining in the brewery serve as a 'phantom awamori,' quietly telling the story of the slow-paced island time of Miyachron.
