Chura Sansan Awamori - 720ml
Chura Sansan Awamori is brewed with 5–15 strains of brown sugar yeast, isolated and developed by Professor Emeritus Nakata Kubo of Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology Junior College. Despite being a relatively new creation, it achieved first place in the Awamori category at the 2014 Autumn National Alcohol Competition, demonstrating its quality and robust flavour.
It is defined by a rich aroma, distinctive sweetness, and mellow character. Brewed with food pairing in mind, it carries a light aftertaste that complements its fuller notes. This Awamori can be enjoyed on the rocks, with water, or warmed, making it well suited for relaxed evenings and gatherings.
Founded in 1848 in Shuri during the reign of King Shō Tai, Mizuho Shuzo is the oldest existing brewery among the Shuri Sanka. Long tied to the Ryukyu royal family, the distillery continues to protect and preserve the tradition of Ryukyu Awamori while remaining firmly connected to Shuri’s cultural heritage.

Founded in 1848, during the first year of the Kaei era, Mizuho Shuzo was established in the ancient city of Shuri, at the time when King Shō Tai sat on the throne of the Ryukyu Kingdom. Its history has been closely intertwined with the royal family, nurturing a tradition that continues to this day.
Awamori from Mizuho Shuzo represents the heritage of Ryukyu Awamori, a spirit once regarded as a precious sake, produced exclusively in the three districts surrounding Shuri Castle (Shuri Sanka). Among these three, Mizuho Shuzo holds a unique place as the oldest surviving brewery, originally founded in Toribori-chō.
Today, the brewery carries forward this legacy, safeguarding the craftsmanship of Awamori while remaining deeply rooted in the history and culture of Shuri.
