Sasanokawa Shuzo
Information
Year of foundation: 1765
Address: 1 Chome-178 Sasagawa, Koriyama, Fukushima Prefecture 963-0108, Giappone
The Sasanokawa Shuzo distillery and liquor company was founded way back in 1765 on Koriyama, the largest and most populous island of the four that make up the Japanese archipelago. For almost two centuries, the distillery was only involved in the production of sake, the Japanese national drink traditionally consumed hot and obtained from fermented rice, and in the production of shochu, much less known, but which is becoming increasingly popular in the West: it is of a distillate that can be made from rice, soba, sweet potatoes and even carrots. But the product that has made the Sasanokawa Shuzo distillery famous also in the overseas market is whisky. Although the production of whiskey in Japan began rather late, in the second half of the nineteenth century, thanks to increasingly frequent exchanges with European merchants, it was after the end of the Second World War that the typical Scottish drink became popular in the Sol Levant. The Sasanokawa Shuzo distillery is very famous for its Yamazakura Blended Whisky, started producing in 1946 and aged for 16 years in oak barrels. In recent years, Japanese spirits are receiving more and more appreciation, both naturally for the taste, but also for the production method, which is absolutely respectful of local tradition. This distillery is an excellent starting point to satisfy your curiosity about these truly qualitative and exciting products.
