Why are we doing?

Auto-translated
Show original
Awamori, Japan's oldest distilled spirit, boasts a history of over 600 years.
In that tradition, "I want to make the best awamori anyway, and I want to deliver the charm of awamori beyond the sea." From this simple yet deep passion, "Shangkaku" was born.
　
The awamori manufacturing method, which has been passed down since the Ryukyu Dynasty, is a supreme technique that was nurtured under the strict control of the royal government. Since its founding in 1887, Zuisen Sake Brewery has been at the center of the awamori industry at the foot of Shuri Castle for more than 130 years.
　
I want to convey to the world the infinite potential of awamori, which was born on a small island in Okinawa. Whether you are overseas who are trying awamori for the first time or are lovers who have been drinking it for many years, we want to create a cup that can be delivered with confidence.
　
"Shang" means "exactly, supreme", and "awakening" means "knowledge with depth and sophistication". As the name "Shokaku" suggests, this cup is the culmination of everything.

What are we doing?

Commitment to raw materials
While most general awamori uses Thai rice, Shokaku carefully selects and uses only long-grain rice from Okinawa Prefecture. In particular, it uses high-quality rice grown on Iheya Island, the northernmost tip of Okinawa, with plenty of sunshine. This island is called the island of "Terushino (sun god)" and is blessed with abundant water resources produced by mountains, making it a rare rice source in Okinawa.
　
Unique manufacturing technology
In the manufacturing process, a special technique is adopted to stop the distillation process early to collect only the high-quality part of the initial distillation. Normally, the alcohol content is adjusted by adding water, but at Shokaku we did not add a drop of water and finished with an extremely high alcohol content of 53 degrees.
　
The Mystery of Black Koji Fungus
Black koji fungus, which is used only in Okinawa in the world, is a miraculous microorganism that suppresses the growth of bacteria in a hot and humid environment. This bacterium, which is rich in citric acid, creates a mellow aroma and deep taste unique to Shangkaku.
　
All of these things will be combined to create a world-class awamori that embodies the essence of "Made in Okinawa".

Commitment to the product

53% original sake
"Shokaku" is an extremely rare awamori made only with long-grain rice from Okinawa Prefecture. It is completed as a "53-degree original sake" without any water added after distillation, and it is finished with a truly supreme drop.
　
Taste characteristics
First, take a bite straight. The concentrated and mellow flavor spreads in your mouth at once, leaving a refreshing aftertaste that lasts for a long time. By mixing it with water or hot water, the aroma and sweetness gently melt away, giving it a smooth mouthfeel. While retaining a clear body feel, the gentle and rounded taste harmonizes perfectly with any dish.
　
The charm of aging
Awamori is the only sake in the world that is aged in a bottle. The sangkaku, which has a small ratio of water and concentrated aged ingredients, becomes more rich and mellow over time. If stored properly after opening, the bottle will mature and you can enjoy a change in taste for a long period of time, such as 10 or 20 years.
