Organic Farming Method of A Long Established Sake Brewery Since 1986, the sake brewery which has been commissioned to produce this shochu, has been making shochu using organically farmed rice as a raw material.The organic certification system was launched in 2001. All contract farmers, including the rice fields where the ingredient for this shochu is acquired, are certified.In addition, agricultural work such as rice planting and rice harvesting follows the lunar calendar, and the phases of the moon are observed. The rice is cultivated while adjusting to nature and environment. Sake Brewing With Full Dedication To Raw Materials, Brewing, And Preservation The Birth Of Kuma Shochu The Kuma region of Kumamoto prefecture has been a place where rice cultivation has been flourishing for a long time due to its fertile soil. A famous Japanese writer, Ryotaro Shiba, even describes the Kuma region as "the oldest place for Yayoi-style rice cultivation" in his book called Hisatsu no Michi.500 years ago, brewing technology was introduced from the continent to this area, and Kuma Shochu made from rice was born. Kept Tradition Since The Establishment This shochu is produced in a sake brewery with a tradition of more than 100 years, which was founded in Yunomae, Kuma-gun in 1897. Since that time, the brewery owned their own rice fields and produced the shochu "Miyako Tsuru" (named after the tributary of the Kuma River, Miyako River), which was prepared with rice cultivated by the shochu maker.In 115 years since then, the brewery have deepened their founding thoughts and are making shochu using "organic Kuma rice" as a raw material. Rooted In Kuma Terroir In wine, there is a concept of "terroir" = soil, topography, climate.Since its founding, we have been practicing the making of shochu with a mindset of “Kuma rice, Kuma water, Kuma people" rooted in the Kuma's terroir. We grow raw rice by the hands of the brewers and make shochu in the area. Also Perfect To Enjoy With A Meal This shochu uses only domestic raw ingredients with a production history. In addition, the brewing technique is traditional and done by a skilled brewer, so it has a very natural taste. It goes very well with food, and you won't get tired of enjoying it as it matches well with your meal.It can be said that this sake has great potential to cope with the new and diversifying food culture every day.
