Tenpuu chisai

The "Space Shochu" with Space-Traveled Koji
Through a space mission centered around Kagoshima University, "Tenpuku Chizai" was born. In 2011, it was created using koji and yeast that had traveled to space and returned to Earth after being carried on the final flight of the Space Shuttle Endeavour and staying at the International Space Station.

"Tenpuku Chizai" refers to the concept that the heavens cover all things and the earth supports all things. It symbolizes a broad and generous heart like the universe, a heart of grace and compassion. This shochu was made using koji and yeast that had journeyed through space, resulting in a satsuma shochu.

You can enjoy this shochu while savoring the romance of space, such as the "Annular Solar Eclipse" and "Hayabusa." It is made from "Koganesengan" from Minami Satsuma, brewed in a kame jar, and has a deep flavor with the sweetness, richness, and umami of Imo shochu.

This is a genuine Imo shochu that you can enjoy while contemplating the romance of the starry sky and the distant universe.
