Choshu Dori

This brand chicken bears Choshu, the old name for Yamaguchi. Raised in roomy conditions on carefully chosen feed, it has little excess fat and is valued for its firm meat and honest chicken flavor.

Highlights

Its richness deepens the more you chew, with a pleasant springiness. It proves itself across many dishes such as grilled skewers, karaage, and hot pot, and its skin is also well regarded.

Enjoying the Seasons

It can be enjoyed all year, yet a light mizutaki hot pot is superb in winter, while in summer a simple salt grill keeps it refreshing.

Access and Basic Information

Handled at restaurants and butchers around Yamaguchi City and across the prefecture, and served at shops near stations.

A Quick Tip

A simple salt grill is the dish that tests its quality. Start there with the fragrance of charcoal.
