HIMEIZUMI SHUZO is a brewery located in Hinokage–cho in the northern part of Miyazaki prefecture. Founded in 1831 and the current president is their seventh generation. Our business operation includes production and sales of Genuine IMO SHOCHU, a spirit distilled from potatoes, MUGI SHOCHU, SOBA SHOCHU and MOCHI SHOCHU (distilled from barley, buckwheat and sticky rice). The KURA building where our SHOCHU is produced is over 130 years old and you may witness the pillars and walls are covered by yeast and KOJI-KIN mold also known as the ASPERGILLUS ORYZAE. Spring water coming from the opposite shore from the brewery is used in the SHOCHU preparation. From the production process to affixing the label, it is mainly done by our hands. We never forget what our starting point was. We continue to strive at SHOCHU production and our motto is, “Quality is our first priority”. It is our pleasure to make our customers happy.
