Turning authentic shochu into a true national sake and even a world-class sake
Honkaku shochu is a traditional Japanese distilled spirit with a history of 500 years.
Denbeigura, where it was founded, maintains the manufacturing methods of the Meiji and Taisho eras, using traditional wooden barrel stills to prepare and store jars.
The 500-year history of authentic shochu, which has been nurtured by Kagoshima's climate and natural features and the Satsuma people's temperament, is not only the passion of the makers, but also the culture of life supported by the taste of shochu lovers.
I believe that delving into the history of shochu, inheriting the tradition of shochu making, and taking on the challenge of creating a bright future for authentic shochu, Japan's national alcoholic beverage, is my life's work, and also the mission of Hamada Sake Brewery. I am.
As a company that has inherited the tradition of making shochu in Satsuma, we hope that our Hamada Sake Brewery will continue to be Kagoshima's shochu brewery 100 or 200 years from now.

Honkaku shochu, which was still only a ``regional sake'' when it was founded in the first year of the Meiji era, has now transcended regional boundaries and positioned itself as ``Japanese sake,'' thanks to its history of being enjoyed for over 500 years. Now you can
What role should we as shochu makers play in such an era?
"Tradition, innovation, and inheritance"
This is the role each of the three breweries plays in making shochu.
It was created using carefully selected high-quality golden sengan and naturally filtered water from Kagoshima's unique Shirasu Plateau.
