The mainstream of shochu cultivated in Minamisatsuma.

Makurazaki, the southernmost tip of the Satsuma Peninsula in Kagoshima Prefecture, is the hometown of Satsuma Sake Brewery. Minamisatsuma has long been known as a place where foreign cultures came to Japan on the Kuroshio Current. Sweet potatoes and distillation technology, which are indispensable for sweet potato shochu, are one of them. The ancestors of this region, who have accepted such various Kuroshio cultures, have grown Satsuma's traditional distilled sake and authentic shochu over many years with their enterprising temperament and passion for sake brewing. Since its founding, Satsuma Sake Brewery has been making authentic shochu in this area of ​​​​Minamisatsuma with a "quality-oriented" attitude, and has continued to disseminate the shochu culture cultivated in Satsuma nationwide.
