Amami Brown Sugar Shochu
Long-Aged Sato no Akebono
長期貯蔵 里の曙
Machida Shuzo's flagship brand. The first in the brown sugar shochu industry to adopt vacuum distillation, it completely redefined what brown sugar shochu could be.
Fermenting brown sugar gives this shochu a rich, gentle aroma reminiscent of ripe fruit.
The crisp, clean character that only vacuum distillation can produce is left fully intact.
Blending highly aromatic new-make spirit into shochu aged for more than three years draws out the soft sweetness and mellow roundness that come from the brown sugar itself.

A Crisp Palate and the Bright Aroma of Brown Sugar
The clean, light mouthfeel created by vacuum distillation is beautifully matched by the delicate sweetness that comes from brown sugar. Blending mellow, long-aged shochu with fresh new-make spirit keeps that crispness intact while lifting the bright, floral aroma even further, for a refined and well-balanced character. Made exclusively with carefully selected Japanese ingredients.
A Design That Carries Our Feeling for Home, and for the Environment
Built around our corporate yellow, the design takes its motif from the Tatsugo pattern, one of the best-known figures of Oshima Tsumugi, the silk textile Amami is famous for. It is a fitting look for our flagship brand, and one that reflects the traditions of the island.
The paper carton uses aluminum-free materials out of consideration for the environment.
It Sparkles, It Opens Up: The Aroma of Brown Sugar
Mix Sato no Akebono with sparkling water and its crispness and bright aroma come through more vividly still, filling the whole palate. We named this highball the "Amami Hana Hana Highball," after "hana hana," the word people in Amami exchange when raising a toast.
