Region
Satsuma-Imo Shochu 17-year Vintage Tasting Set (500 Ltd. Ed., Warranty Card Inc.) is produced in Kagoshima prefecture.
Producer
Tensei Shuzo
Kagoshima Prefecture
The soft water of the Osaki Hishida area is indispensable for creating the soft and smooth taste of Imojochu. 25 thousand years ago, a volcanic eruption transformed an ancient sandbar into an 100-meter deep natural filtration system for the groundwater of Mt. Takakuma. Tensei brewery is located just above this resource rich area and utilizes water that has passed through the silica-rich shirasu layer and is further filtered by sand and gravel. Since 75% of our product is water, Tensei carefully curates the particularities for the best quality in a prefecture known for its unique, locality-based Imojochu.
