Kyushu is the main hub for almost all authentic shochu production in Japan, housing more than 280 distilleries, and is commonly referred to as 'the shochu highway.'
Shochu, made from over 50 base ingredients, including unique ones like bell peppers and seaweed, is a popular spirit in Japan but is just starting to gain recognition in the United States.
Shochu, distinct from Japanese vodka, sake, or soju, is a versatile spirit with various flavor profiles ranging from umami-rich to nutty and floral, depending on the base ingredient used in its production.
