Kyushu is the home of shÅchÅ« ç¼é , the fiery Japanese distilled liquor. It's typically around 25%, but some varieties can be much stronger. It can be distilled from nearly anything including rice, barley, brown sugar and buckwheat, but Kyushu is best known for potato shÅchÅ« èç¼é imojÅchÅ«, particularly that from the ancient province of Satsuma modern-day Kagoshima.
