Producer: 昇龍 shoryu
Harada Shuzo is located on Okierabu island. The current owner has inherited this small distillery in 1972, and since then they have decided to produce a unique and delicious Kokuto (brown sugar) Shochu, to survive as a small distillery. They started barrel aging and blending and achieved an aromatic and full-bodied Kokuto Shochu. The brand name "Rising Dragon" was inspired by an image that came to the owner while contemplating the full moon.
