Since 1948 — 読谷村, Okinawa

Higa Shuzo was founded in 1948 in Yomitan by Torakichi Higa, a schoolteacher who wanted to give Okinawans good awamori. His Zanpa series now ranks among the island's best-loved — the black-label Zanpa Kuro is affectionately called Zankuro across generations, and the premium five-year kusu holds ITI two-star honours. Kusu cellar tours by reservation.
