Distillery Information
Situated in the Oita Prefecture on Japan's southernmost island of Kyushu, Iichiko produces shōchū, a traditional Japanese spirit. The operation employs cutting-edge technology in making its award-winning spirits. But it's also the environment that contributes to the quality of the product. The region is famous for its clean air, forests, and mountains, as well as springs. "Iichiko" means "it's great" in the local Oita dialect. The distillery was formed in 1958 and produced sake, wine, and shōchū. The very first Iichiko shōchū to be made from barley was released in 1979.
