Spirits made from deer skin. It is the fruit of craftsmanship by Enderschema and Mitosaya, a distillery in Chiba.

At the same time that demand for home-drinking has increased due to the influence of Corona, attention has also been focused on ordering sake that is suitable for home-drinking from breweries and distilleries scattered throughout the country.

This time, I would like to introduce a distillery in Otaki Town, Isumi County, Chiba Prefecture, which is located in a distillery calledMITOSAYAAnd, oh my!Hender SchemeThis item was made in collaboration with the "K" brand, which is a Japanese company that produces a wide range of products. The product was a spirit distilled from deerskin.

Mithsaya" uses fruit trees, medicinal herbs, and herbs grown by the company itself, as well as the rich bounty produced by trusted partners throughout Japan, to create products using the techniques of fermentation and distillation. Under the motto of "giving shape to small discoveries from nature," the company has released over 150 varieties of spirits, processed products that lock in the bounty of the season, and products.

Enderschema, which resonated with Mitosaya through the keyword "craftsmanship," spent several years distilling leather to create a special spirit called "DEAR DEER.

The search for leather that is harmless even if put in the mouth led us to deerskin. The leather is made from raw deer skin that has had all impurities removed by hand, without the use of tannins or chemicals normally used in the tanning process, and distilled from Japanese pepper, or houttuynia, which produces bright red berries on winter mountains, and aged in an oak barrel.

In fact, the first prototype was shown to the public at the "mitosaya open day" held in 2021, and in 2022, they released "DAPPER PEPPER" aged with deerskin and houttuynia, which was finally completed after an update this time.

As a specific improvement, while in the previous "DAPPER PEPPER" the deer skin was soaked in rice spirits and aged, in this "DEAR DEER" the deer skin flavor is extracted more delicately by distilling the skin itself. The mild wild taste of hay and the fresh stimulation of Japanese pepper give the beer a depth of flavor that can be enjoyed.
 

DEAR DEER ¥9,900 (100ml)

DEAR DEER ¥19,800 (500ml)

The bottle comes in two sizes, a 100 ml size that can be used as a trial, and a 500 ml size that can be used at home. Each comes with a bottle label made of vegetable tannin leather by Enderschema and a special leather holder. After you finish drinking, you can use it as a small container for small items.
 
Sales will begin on Monday, August 21 at all five of Sukima's four stores and the Mitosaya online store.

To celebrate the release, a limited two-day pre-launch event "mitosaya x Hender Scheme DEAR DEER" will be held in Kuramae, Tokyo, on August 19 (Sat) and 20 (Sun). In addition to tasting "DEAR DEER," the event will also feature catering food produced by "mitosaya" and collaboration items such as coasters, trays, and notebooks made from "Hender Schema" products. Of course, "DEAR DEER" is also available for purchase.

Tasting glass with leather holder

Prior to the event, the online store of "Mitosaya" will sell tasting glasses with leather holders by "Enderskima". Purchasers can pick up the glasses at the venue and enjoy eating and shopping while enjoying drinks with the glasses around their necks. For more details, please check the information below.

At first glance, Mithusaya and "Enderschema" seemed like an unexpected combination. The two companies share the same passion for craftsmanship, and the spirit that they have spent so much time perfecting is sure to have a taste unlike any other. Please experience it for yourself.
