Royal Mizuho 5yrs Awamori - 720ml
Royal Mizuho 5yrs Awamori is crafted with black koji, which softens with age, allowing both aroma and flavour to evolve. Only the finest aged Awamori (kusu) is carefully selected, each expression matured for more than five years, then blended in a unique ratio.
When poured into a glass, exposure to air releases a delicate fragrance, with sweet notes recalling caramel and roasted nuts. On the palate, a gentle sweetness unfolds, accompanied by a smooth, mellow richness that reflects the elegance of Awamori aged for over five years.
Founded in 1848 in Shuri during the reign of King Shō Tai, Mizuho Shuzo is the oldest surviving brewery in the Shuri Sanka districts. Its history has long been tied to the Ryukyu royal family, and today the distillery continues to preserve the heritage of Ryukyu Awamori while remaining firmly rooted in Shuri’s culture and tradition.

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.
