Honbo Sake Brewery
From Satsuma to the world, a crossover of tradition and innovation. Shochu, whiskey, wine. A comprehensive alcoholic beverage manufacturer that has mastered every fine beverage.
Founded in 1872, when talking about Hombo Shuzo, one thing that cannot be overlooked is the overwhelming amount of "technical expertise" that the company possesses.
In addition to producing the traditional sweet potato shochu "Sakurajima," the company also operates the distillery for the internationally acclaimed Japanese whiskey "Mars Whisky." The "barrel aging techniques" and "blending techniques" cultivated through whiskey production are generously applied to shochu production.
Based on the belief of "transforming the local climate into liquid," the company has bases not only in Satsuma but also in Shinshu and Yakushima, and is one of Japan's leading and talented manufacturers that continues to create new sake cultures.
