Taste the precious authentic sweetpotato shochu "Mitake" | Rakuzo Utage, Yurakucho

Hello, this is Rakuzo Utage Yurakucho. This is Rakuzo Utage Yurakucho.

Limited editions and other items that are available in limited numbers are very attractive. Many women, in particular, may have an eye for limited edition products. There must be a reason why they are limited in number.

We also have an authentic sweetpotato shochu called "Mitake," which is said to be valuable because of its small annual production. We would like to introduce the charm of Mitake.

 

 

Sweet potatoes and abundant water from Kagoshima Prefecture

Authentic sweet potato shochu "Mitake" is made from carefully selected Kagoshima sweet potato "Kogane Sengan" and rich water filtered through the virgin forest that covers about 90% of the World Heritage Yakushima Island and is selected as one of the 100 best waters in Japan. This shochu has many fans for its mellow taste that reminds us of the great nature. It has a slight aroma of sweetpotato and is refreshing, easy to drink, and pleasant to the palate. Please enjoy it.

 

 

Origin of the name

Mitake" is a sweet potato shochu made by the Mitake Brewery on Yakushima Island, Kagoshima Prefecture. Yakushima is a rainy island registered as a World Natural Heritage site, located approximately 60 km south of Kagoshima Prefecture. It is also known as the "Alps of the Sea" because of its mountain ranges of over 1,000 meters, including Miyanoura-dake, the highest peak in Kyushu. Authentic shochu "Mitake" is named after three mountains: Miyanoura-dake, Nagata-dake, and Kuromi-dake. Mitake is said to be a rare potato shochu because the brewery produces only a small amount.
