Der Saikogura Shochu, hergestellt von Matsushita Jozojo, ist ein echter Kuma Shochu, da er in der Präfektur Kumamoto produziert wird. Kuma Shochu ist eine von der WTO geschützte geografische Region wie Bordeaux in Frankreich oder Chianti in Italien. Nur im Kuma River Valley produzierte Kome Shochus (Reis Shochus) können als „Kuma Shochu“ bezeichnet werden. Die Kuma-Region ist durch den Kuma Fluss gesegnet mit besonders reinem Wasser. Das extrem saubere Flusswasser und das fruchtbare Tal bieten ideale Bedingungen für die Herstellung von Reis-Shochus. Der Saikogura Shochu zeichnet sich durch einen besonders feinen und eleganten Geschmack und ein intensives Reisaroma aus. Auch Sake-Fans sind von diesem Shochu begeistert!
Description
Matsushita Jozojo was founded in 1804, making it the oldest distillery in Kumamoto. Saikogura Shochu was first released on the occasion of the company's bicentenary. Since then, it has received several awards in Japan for its fantastic quality, for example from the Liquor Review Committee of the Kumamoto National Tax Bureau. It is made from 100% Hinohikari rice from Kumamoto, which is considered particularly aromatic and of high quality. After distillation, this Shochu is stored in steel tanks for three years, which makes it particularly mild and gentle. The result is a pure and unadulterated rice flavour, with the aroma of steamed rice initially predominating on the nose. The Saikogura is bottled at 25% vol, is made with white koji and is very round and complex. It is distilled by vacuum distillation.
The Sakogura Shochu can be enjoyed pure or on the rocks. Prolonged with soda or cold water it is a fantastic companion to food, such as fish, sushi, sashimi, seafood and white meat.

About Matsushita Jozo
Matsushita Jozo is the oldest Kuma distillery. Founded in 1804, it is currently being run by the 13th generation. For more than 200 years the finest Kuma Shochu has been produced here. The distillery is located in Mizukamimura, a small village in Kuma district, Kumamoto Prefecture. From rice cultivation to harvesting, only a few employees here produce everything by hand - a true small craft business. The company is also committed to the environment: For example, the shochu yeasts formed during the distillation process to produce shochu are distributed by contract farmers to fields as fertilizer. This compost is 100% organic fertilizer that is returned to nature.
