Factory Tour】Kurokirishima is made from white sweet potatoes! What surprised me when I visited "Kirishima Sake Brewery
Kurokirishima" is a shochu that can be found in almost any store (or so I believe). It is a sweetpotato shochu liqueur that is extremely well-known throughout Japan. I went on a factory tour of the Kirishima Shuzo factory, which is famous for its "Kurokirishima" imo-jochu. Here are three things that surprised me.
"Highball specialized" sweet potato shochu like high-class whiskey? Blend of sherry barrels aged for 10 years
"WAKASHIO 515 for Highball", a "highball-specialized" shochu, is now available, and "Satsuma Highball" using this is sold in limited quantities. A blend of sweet potato shochu that has been aged in sherry barrels for 10 years.
You can buy local authentic shochu online! "Ginzo" is open!
Speaking of Kirishima City, Kagoshima Prefecture ... That's right! A famous production area for sweet potato shochu, which is famous for "Kurokirishima". A store selling a variety of alcoholic beverages, including authentic shochu that can only be tasted locally, is open at "Yahoo! Shopping"!
