Nakamura Shuzoujo

History and Story

Located on the mineral rich plains near the base of the Kirishima volcano, Nakamura Distillery has been producing sweet potato shochu since the late 19th century. One of the few all handmade producers of shochu in Kagoshima Prefecture, Nakamura works to deepen perception of terrior in shochu by harvesting only the best sweet potato in the area and distilling by hand with water from nearby the nearby Kirishima mountain range.
