"Beautifully aromatic, fruity and clear shochu."
Characterized by its beautiful, tropically fruity fragrance and its clear taste. We blended a shochu made with water, rice and Ginjo yeast and carefully distilled at a low temperature with our authentic rice shochu, Hakutake Shiro. We tried to bring out the unique aroma of rice to the maximum degree. In addition, we created a shochu with a mild, smooth feeling as it passes down the throat and a deep, mellow taste.

The Takahashi Distillery
For over a century since its founding in 1900, Takahashi Shuzo has been focused on making authentic rice shochu in the Hitoyoshi Kuma region. This region is located in the southernmost point of Kumamoto Prefecture. It is not just any rice shochu that we make; it is Kuma Shochu with over 400 years of history. Kuma Shochu is a brand that has been permitted by the National Tax Agency to display a geographical indication. Alongside Iki Shochuļ¼Nagasaki prefectureļ¼, Satsuma Shochu (Kagoshima prefecture) and Ryukyu Awamori (Okinawa prefecture), it is one of only four authentic shochu brands in Japan, and we have a mission to protect this Kuma Shochu and pass it on to future generations.
