    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Required Report - public distribution Date: 2/21/2013 GAIN Report Number: JA3501 Japan Wine Annual Japan Wine Report 2012 Approved By: Steve Shnitzler, Director Prepared By: Sumio Thomas Aoki, Senior Marketing Specialist Kate Aoki, Intern Steven Ossorio, Intern Report Highlights: In 2012, the United States held a 7.7% value share of Japan's $1,037 million imported bottled wine market. This was an increase from the 7.5% share in 2011. Market share of bottles priced ¥500 JPY ($6.33) or under and ¥1000 – 1500 JPY ($12.66 – 18.99 USD) continue to increase. Bulk wine imports continue to grow as domestic Japanese wine companies bottle their own wine. Executive Summary: Executive Summary Distribution of Japanese bottled wine is approximately 900 thousand hectoliters. This plus 1.81 million hectoliters of imported bottled wines totaled 2.71 million hectoliters of wine distributed in Japan. The Japanese wine market continues to be very competitive. Although 50 countries supply wine to Japan, ten countries account for approximately 96% of the imported volume. On-premise consumption continues to increase as the Japanese economy improves and wine becomes more generally affordable. Upscale Japanese izakaya restaurants are performing quite well, and standing wine bars are becoming more popular, particularly among middle-aged and older men. Off-premise o Off-premise consumption has increased as well. Supermarkets are carrying more inexpensive (under ¥1000 JPY or $12.66) wines, and premium wines are increasingly being consumed from online sources.

  • The World of Otsukemono!
    Welcome to the world of Otsukemono! We call Japanese pickles "Otsukemono" Its first letter "O" is an exalted prefix in Japanese. Usually the word "tsukemono" is used for Japanese pickles but we put "O" on it to pay the respect for Otsukemono which is the wisdom of our ancestor and also to express that they are good enough to be used as a gift for someone you care. Japanese Otsukemono first appeared in the literature more than 1200 years ago. Actually it is believed that pickling vegetables with sea water for food preservation began sometime around stone age. Owing to the grace of seasons and our original fermentation culture, Otsukemono has evolved and prevailed through our histroy and has made huge variety and affluence in each region. Otsukemono has unique deep taste, rich piquent aroma, addictive unique texture and attractive colorfulness. We believe that Otsukemono can be more valued as an essential side dish in today's world of diversity. Paying respect to the culture and history of Otsukemono while creating new values up to date Since our foundation, we put emphasis on the quality of salt and vegetable ingredients as the basis for good pickles. In the late 70's, we started to use natural sea salt, to collaborate with progressive farmers in the regions and to reintroduce local traditional vegetables. We think its our mission to pass on the value of Japanese fermentation culture to the next generation. We are producing various types of pickles using seven pickling beds, namely salt, rice-bran, soy-sauce, soybean-paste, rice malt, sake lees, and vineger.

  • Recipe Books in North America
    Greetings How have Japanese foods changed between generations of Nikkei since they first arrived in their adopted countries from Japan? On behalf of the Kikkoman Institute for International Food Culture (KIIFC), Mr. Shigeru Kojima of the Advanced Research Center for Human Sciences, Waseda University, set out to answer this question. From 2015 to 2018, Mr. Kojima investigated recipe books and conducted interviews in areas populated by Japanese immigrants, particularly in Brazil and North American, including Hawaii. His research results on Brazil were published in 2017 in Food Culture No. 27. In this continuation of the series, he focuses on North America. With the long history of Japanese immigration to North America, as well as Nikkei internments during WWII, the researcher had some concerns as to how many recipe books could be collected. Thanks to Mr. Kojima’s two intensive research trips, the results were better than expected. At a time of increasing digitization in publishing, we believe this research is both timely and a great aid in preserving historical materials. We expect these accumulated historical materials will be utilized for other research in the future. The KIIFC will continue to promote activities that help the public gain a deeper understanding of diverse cultures through the exploration of food culture. CONTENTS Feature Recipe Books in North America 3 Introduction Recipe Books Published by Buddhist Associations and Other Religious Groups 10 Recipe Books Published by Nikkei Associations (Excluding Religious Associations) 13 Mobile Kitchen Recipe Books 15 Recipe Books Published by Public Markets and Others 17 Books of Japanese Recipes as Ethnic Cuisine 20 Recipe Books as Handbooks for Living in Different Cultures 21 Hand-written Recipe Books 22 Summary Shigeru Kojima A research fellow at the Advanced Research Center for Human Sciences, Waseda University, Shigeru Kojima was born in Sanjo City, Niigata Prefecture.

  • Yufuin Shochu
    YUFUIN WHITE Shochu Yatsushika Brewery, Oita Prefecture SHOCHU DETAILS: Raw Material: Barley Alcohol: 20% Distillation: Single ABOUT SHOCHU Shochu is a distilled spirit native to Japan since the 15th century. It originated on the southern island of Kyushu, which remains its heart, but is now produced all over Japan. Shochu can be distilled from many different ingredients, but barley, rice and sweet potato are the most common. Shochu is unique from other categories of distilled spirits because it begins with a grain inoculated with koji-kin, similar to sake production. The koji is then fermented in the same way a sake starter is created, following which the mash is distilled, filtered, stored and bottled. Until the 1970s, shochu was only consumed in southern Japan, but its appeal began to travel and resulted in a national boom. In 2003, domestic shochu sales surpassed sake and have never looked back. ABOUT THE DISTILLERY Yatsushika brewery was founded in 1864 by Toukou Aso (first generation), and was strictly a sake producer for 200 years. As the popularity for sake waned, Yatsushika expanded into shochu production. Deep in the scenic Kuju Mountain Range of Oita prefecture lies Yatsushika brewery. Commonly known as the ‘roof of Kyushu,’ this area is the leading producer of barley shochu in Japan. Nestled in the bosom of nature, the secret of Yatsushika’s flavor is twofold: the clear, fresh water delivered to the brewery by a 250 meter well tapping into a natural underwater spring, and the winter climate perfect for cold brew with temperature reaching 14 degrees F.
